Moissanite Review: Review of Moissanites v. Diamonds

Did you know that very few diamond dealers can tell the difference between moissanites and diamonds? Best yet, moissanites are of higher quality than cubic zirconia and still a fraction of the cost of diamonds.

Moissanite, silicon carbide (SiC), is an organically occurring mineral found in limited, shimmering particles in the ground. It’s named for Dr. Henri Moissan, a French scientist and Nobel Prize winner who discovered minute quantities of what was to later be named moissanite from a meteor crater in Arizona.

Moissanite crystals are very miniscule, yet tough and resistant to chipping. They can be taken care of in the same that a diamond would be cared for. While moissanites resemble diamonds almost exactly, they have completely different chemical properties than a diamond contains as they were created with advanced technology from Charles & Colvard.

Moissanite wedding rings are the perfect alternative to the more traditional — and more expensive — diamond wedding ring.

Affordable Wedding Rings at Limoges Jewelry

My boyfriend and I were trying to find affordable wedding rings yesterday, and naturally we headed toward Chinatown.  Sadly, many of the ones we liked were priced around $30,000.  This isn’t in our price range, and, even if it was, we still wouldn’t spend that sort of money on a ring.  I’m not sure how I feel about buying a diamond, and we’re still deciding if we want something along the lines of 18K gold wedding rings, or platinum wedding bands

We didn’t specifically see anything we liked, so we went online and discovered some good deals at Limoges instead. 

This experience has made me realizing that there’s a lack of resources available for people on the prowl for some affordable (or just plain cheap) wedding bands.  I’m going to do my best to compile a list of various options and try to help out visitors and my partner and I at the same time.
