Moissanite

Moissanite is a gemstone known for its brilliance and durability, often used as an affordable alternative to diamonds.

Originally discovered in 1893 by French scientist Henri Moissan in a meteor crater, natural moissanite is extremely rare. Most moissanite available today is lab-grown.

It is prized for its diamond-like appearance, with high refractive index and fire, making it sparkle even more than diamonds. Moissanite is also very hard, scoring 9.25 on the Mohs scale, making it suitable for everyday wear. Its affordability and ethical sourcing appeal to those looking for eco-friendly and cost-effective jewelry options.
