Moissanite is a rare, naturally occurring mineral also known as silicon carbide. Named after Nobel Prize-winning chemist Dr. Henri Moissan, Moissanite was first discovered in 1893 at the site of a massive meteorite strike in Arizona. Scientists in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina later developed the thermal growing process that creates silicon carbide crystals, which are fashioned into Moissanite gemstones.

Natural Moissanite is incredibly rare, so Moissanite available today is mostly laboratory-created. After many years of trial and error, the particles Moissanite discovered were successfully synthesized to produce what is now one of the world’s most scintillating gemstones. Moissanite has a greater refractive index and therefore contains more fire and brilliance - the internal play of light inside the gem – than diamonds. Moissanites are engineered to give the illusion of similarity to diamonds, but are compositionally and visually quite different from a real diamond. The durability, brilliance, and color of the two gems are quite distinct. Moissanite is Environmentally and Socially Responsible stone. Moissanites are lab-grown stones. There is no mining involved in the creation process, so Moissanites are not harmful to the earth, unlike synthetic gems, is an actual precious stone. When it comes to the best diamond substitute, Moissanite is the answer. A lab-grown precious gem, it provides the beauty and sparkle you want out of all your fine jewelry without the price tag of a natural diamonds.
