Is Moissanite a Diamond?
(The Real Answer)
Short answer:
No. Moissanite isn’t a diamond — and it doesn’t need to be.
Moissanite is its own gemstone with its own chemistry, brilliance, structure, and origin story.
It was discovered in a meteorite crater, not a mine.
Here’s what makes moissanite different in the best way:
1. Different Gemstone, Different Brilliance
Moissanite has a fire and sparkle pattern that’s completely its own.
It isn’t trying to “copy” anything — its brilliance is naturally bold and modern.
2. Different Structure, Same Durability
Moissanite is incredibly durable, making it perfect for:
• stackable rings
• pinky rings
• bangles
• tennis bracelets
• everyday earrings
• sculptural rings
It’s designed for daily wear — diamonds often aren’t.
3. Ethical and Conflict-Free
Moissanite is created in labs, not mined.
You get fine-jewelry quality without environmental or ethical harm.
Modern luxury = transparency.
4. Better for Everyday Jewelry
Moissanite isn’t a “replacement” for engagement diamonds.
It’s the gemstone that lets you build a real jewelry collection you can wear every day.
