My girlfriend mentioned rings the other night and I showed her Moissanite. We went through videos and articles. She's in love with the idea. It's going to save me (and ultimately us) thousands of dollars.
Went with my mom to the jeweler for a moisanite ring and was very impressed with them. My mom ended up buying a 1.5 carat moisanite ring for 1700. If the ring was a diamond it would have cost over 10,000. I plan on getting a moisanite when I pop the question on my girlfriend and use the saved money on a bad ass honeymoon.
1.700$ for a moissanite???the jewelry have done a party after that sale😂Also the great quality on the market of 1.5carats cost around 150$ if you don t knoe someone thay create those """gems""" if you have correct contact for a 1.5 i pay less the 20$ of pure quality 🤷♂️
It sounds like quite a few of these people in the comments are just pissed over their "investment". Have you even looked at resell engagement ring sites, or say...even Craigslist? People end up selling their diamond rings for 1/4th of the price they paid because the store won't take it back. Half the sales are from broken engagements, not even that old! Unless your jewelry is made by a luxury, well known designer, NEVER assume it will appreciate in value, no matter what stone it is.
Basically, the average engagement ring does not hold it's value because most of what you are paying is taxes and mark ups. It's only the large and very expensive diamonds and other stones that hold value or escalate in value. Same with jewels that have been owned by celebs. In Australia, there is at least a 45% tax on all jewellery plus at least a 15% store mark up on what you are purchasing so, reselling is very low priced if you break the engagement. The man would be better off keeping the ring and having the design altered if he proposes in the future. It would save money in the long run.
I LOVE my moissanite ring! The shine is amazing! The only way you can tell with the naked eye that its not diamond is that it throws colors. Which I dont mind. I get people stopping me all the time see and compliment it.
i love my moissanite diamond ring. im actually the one that sugested that i have a moissanite engagement ring. and it was soooo worth it. i get compliments and stares from it all the time. the stone is gorgouse!!!!
In terms of optical properties, moissanite looks better than most diamonds. The problem (for some) is the color. All stones have a yellowish or greenish hue - the only question is how strong. Moissanite needs to be set by someone who knows its strengths and weaknesses. In a yellow gold, solitare setting, it can look great. In settings with silver, white gold or platinum, it can look bad. ALWAYS buy moissanite jewelry in person (never over the web) and make sure they take returns.
After thinking about it for a bit...in engineering materials, hardness and toughness are inverted from each other. Basically "hardness" means that the material is very hard, but with this comes brittleness. Toughness is usually a measure of being able to withstand deformation. Therefore the Mois stone is "less hard" (less scratch resistant) while less prone to brittle fracture. A diamond is "harder" more resistant to scratches, but more prone to fracture or chip.
The most important part of this is how he treats you que tan importante eres para el cuanto te valoren te respeten y cuanto te cuiden en todos los aspectos de tu vida y si ama tu personalidad tus locuras tus torpezas. La cara y el cuerpo se va pero el corazón y la esencia no cambia y eso es lo que te hace bell@
I don't have moissanite, but I belong to many jewelry forums that talk about their 'moissies' and from what they say, the sparkle lasts forever. You have to watch it, though, because it does weird things in cloudy and rainy weather and I think sometimes in the car.Also, Better Than Diamond uses moissanites for their Amora Moissanites & they say some of the stones they are getting aren't cut very well & they can't use them, hence no more Amora Moissianite for the time being.
I would like to know the difference in American made (I think it is made in North Carolina) moissanite and moissanite from India, which is much cheaper, although off white still has all the bling... Just isn't white...
Moissanite still has issues with color. If you don't mind a greenish or yellowish tint, they're OK. In terms of color-grading, moissanite is equivalent to a J, K or L diamond. To get to a colorless (equivalent to a D) stone, you have to buy a CZ. That's why moissanite doesn't do well in silver, white gold or platinum settings. It especially has trouble with placed in setting next to other stones like melee diamonds or other stones that clash with the yellow-green hue.
Great information and imagery. The vedio provide critical information about moissanite and other gemstones. The information is intriguing but deceptive. The psychology to sell the product is overly fragrant and miss leading. Lady's, this add was made for you. Jewelers don't expect you to know the geology chemistry that makes a jewel. Moissanite is a superior stone to diamonds.
I belive poisonnite, or moissanite must be sold under it`s own name, not as diamonds. The trouble today is that some jeweler try to sell it as real diamonds. Here the jewel industry must be hard against themself and demand that moissonite jewellery must be sold as moissonite, not as diamonds. That is my advise
I must disagree with James Anagnos.....I own a 0.25 crt moisanite and the fire from the stone is beautiful. More fire than diamond. The difference is that a diamond is more sparkling. Moisanite has more color/fire ans is much cheaper.
WHAT YOU CALL FIRE IS CHEAP FLASHES JUST LIKE CZ AND MOISSANITE BECAUSE THEY ARE BOTH DOUBLE REFRACTIVE ,THE DIAMOND IS SINGLE REFRACTIVE AND HAS REAL FIRE , TO AN IDIOT LIKE YOU IT LOOKS BETTER ,TO SOME ONE THAT KNOWS WHATS UP IT LOOKS LIKE CHEAP CRAP, THE COLOR AND REFRACTICVE INDEXT ARE ONE NIGHT AND TEN THOUSAND DAYS APPART FROM DIAMOND, IF YOU WANT TO SEE A DIAMOND SIMULANT THAT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE A REAL DIAMOND GO AND BUY A DIAMOND NEXUS DIAMOND SIMULANT ,THEY ARE IDENTICAL AND GUARANTEED FOR LIFE NOT TO BRAKE ,CHIP, OR LOSE ITS LUSTER EVER
I got round,oval,trillion and marquise moissies. Didnt know i already have this stone just buy everytime I'm depressed. Shopping makes me stressed free😻😘😝
Does anyone know about mounting? Can and will a reg jeweler mount moissanite in a platinum prong setting? Is all moissanite stones the same or can u have bad vs good?
Am I just weird that I want lenses and mirrors made out of this. Also watch that fire and sparkle really go wild if you hot dip the bottom with silver so as to make all the lower faces mirrors.
important thing is the natural process and duration involved in the synthesis of these materials....and synthetic does not have the same value as natural...this material is good though...
can moissanite be used in the making of masonry tools? a 9.25 vs a 10 doesnt make a lot of difference when it comes to a masonry blade. Might bring the price of such tools down a whole lot since it wouldnt use diamonds anymore
You don't need moissanite in particular. Moissanite usually refers to the gem, but regular silicon carbide has the same hardness at a fraction of the cost. Also note that the Mohs scale an ordinal scale: 10 is harder than 9.25 but it doesn't tell you how much harder.
2:05 I guess that's no longer true? When this video came out, Moissanite wasn't too readily available or known and was roughly 10-25% the cost of a diamond, now in 2021, it's widely available and you can get Moissanite for as low as 1-5% the cost of a diamond.
You are aware that diamonds loose over a third of their value after you buy them. They are also one of the most common gems on the earth. Moissanites are 10% the price of a relative diamond. Please tell me where you are getting the math that demonstrates the viability of diamond investments?
Only one company produce moissanite at they limit the production. Meaning they will control the price and make it expensive. But actually, moissanite is really cheap.
@@Laura-jk2ed We're made from star dust, possibly even from the Big Bang with all the elements, the atoms or whatever inside us, the food we eat, drink, etc. know what I mean? /shrug
It's silicon carbide, literally the same as a diamond, with silicon paired with it. Making it tougher, and more resistant to chipping or breaking, but this also gives the stone more fire
But, seriously, who can afford the price of diamonds anymore? I'm with you, I love diamonds, but when 1/8 to 3/4 cost like 3-5 thousand, I think I can buy lots of wedding sets with that money instead of just one, and with bigger stones & variety is the spice of life to me when it comes to my rings.I think it is fine if you save up your money to buy one and put it in the safety deposit box for investment, but then you can't wear it & risk the remote chance of it getting stolen or lost.
@puipuni complete agree IF you cannot find a decent price diamond..Id much prefer to find a diamond because it will always hold its cost. I beleive there is only one company who has the rights to create moissanites and that is going to expire in a year or so.once others can tap in - the price of the moissainites will go down significantly...but nevertheless a beautiful gem..

Lady's this add was made for you carefully. Great facts and information and diamonds, moissanite and cubic zirconia. (Or CZ) The psychology use is potent. The video is very miss leading. Moissanite is a superior gem except for one quality and that is hardness. Diamond hardness is 10, moissanite is actually 9.5 not 9.25 in the narration dedicated. Cleverly the advertisement turn the focus of hardness to cubic zirconia that has nothing to do with the comparison of MOISSANITE & DIAMONDS.

What a shame, Henry Moissen should take credit for this not these people. If it wasn't for Dr Moissen these moissanite diamonds wouldn't be able to be created.
Limited Warranty ? Lame, my wife's diamond has life time warranty, and most certified diamonds are. It looks good, still think diamonds are better. Cheers!!
I used to work with a dentist who was engaged to a computer engineer. To impress her parents they spent together $75,000 on her engagement ring. It was stunning, huge, I didn't believe it was real. She said after the wedding she hardly wore it and they only bought it to impress her parents, so when they went back to try and resell it, jewelers weren't even offering her half of what they paid. She was so pissed telling the story she said that its the worst investment anyone can make.
@MrXAVIERDB sucks but unless we all have a brother in law or friend in africa who can dig it up to us..there is not much we can do if we want one..business is business..so you always pay un upfee - even hefty ones..oh well..but you can shop smart and find deals..even at pawnshops..
I love them both, prefer the man mined. Do not like the blood associated with them though. Watch the movie Blood Diamond. But that's the nature of the beast.
What a thoroughly inappropriate thing to say and for another thing, doesn't have anything to do with moissanite and the info clip. What you say speaks volumes for you and your 'bitch'. If my boyfriend or husband called me, he wouldn't know what hit him when I got through with him.
It shouldn't be this eXpencieve anyway,since it is fake!!.Well you sell it at the price of 10 percent of a diamond !! which tells a lot,right ?? Just go find a real diamond and compare them with mois for yourself,head to head and see the differance!!!
A diamond is overpriced artificially made most of the time too. A real large perfect diamond is unavailable to most due to price. If you have a great income great for someone like you.
Diamonds are the biggest scam in the history of the world. The diamond industry mines so many diamonds per year that they have to lock the vast majority of them up in vaults just to create the illusion of artificial scarcity. Moisanite however was originally discovered from an asteroid and is extremely rare. My mom just bought herself a 1.5 carat brilliant moisanite ring for 1700. If the ring was a dimaond it would have cost 10,000.
Moissanite=fake people It`s no better than diamond. The money in the bank is there. Diamonds worth more money with time. They`re a way better investment. ¿ How about 1 ct., G color, VS1 ? Diamonds=a check with no expiration date.
Faux "Diamonds". Can't trick majority of testers,even some high end multi tester,metal/diamonds/cvd and moisenite. They don't beep they say oult loud,14k,Lab,Cuz, Natural and moisenite so there's no mistake.All no matter the price can mess up calibration,but this is pretty easy and it's always been right always.

Rawand Chaabi
In my country most people just have plain golden rings.
The main reason to buy moissanite is that they aren't drenched in human blood like diamonds. Patent ran out in 2016 too so now it may be even cheaper.
I like that they encourage women to buy it for themselves rather than expect a man to buy it for them
That was actually just a marketing tactic.
SO MUCH MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN A DIAMOND!!!!!!!!!!!!
I so agree!
I LOVE my moissanite ring! The shine is amazing! The only way you can tell with the naked eye that its not diamond is that it throws colors. Which I dont mind. I get people stopping me all the time see and compliment it.

Stunning!
In terms of optical properties, moissanite looks better than most diamonds.
The problem (for some) is the color. All stones have a yellowish or greenish hue - the only question is how strong.
Moissanite needs to be set by someone who knows its strengths and weaknesses. In a yellow gold, solitare setting, it can look great.
In settings with silver, white gold or platinum, it can look bad.
ALWAYS buy moissanite jewelry in person (never over the web) and make sure they take returns.
Seems to me that your slogan should be, If you can't Dazzle them with Brilliance, baffle them with bulshit!
Makes sense. Thank you for explaining.
Another important aspect - this gem has no blood on it.
neither do african gems
After thinking about it for a bit...in engineering materials, hardness and toughness are inverted from each other. Basically "hardness" means that the material is very hard, but with this comes brittleness. Toughness is usually a measure of being able to withstand deformation. Therefore the Mois stone is "less hard" (less scratch resistant) while less prone to brittle fracture. A diamond is "harder" more resistant to scratches, but more prone to fracture or chip.

I'm just thankful that there is an affordable alternative to CZ.
There are two scores on that slide - Mohs (hardness), in which diamond is higher, and toughness, in which moissanite is higher

The difference between the two weights equals the samples displaces. The specific gravity is then calculated by dividing the weight of the displaced water into the weight of the mineral. This is a delicate procedure that requires special equipment.)
5. Fractures
6. Crystal Form
7. Crystal Systems
8. Symmetry
9. Fluorescence (Minerals unseen until exposed to an ultraviolet light (UV) The hope diamond is a vivid beep blue and will turn a bright red under UV lighting. A rear unknown fact.)
10. Cut and Polished (Craftsmans are responsible for the cut and polishing of gemstones. A remarkable gemstone gem quality rest on the Craftsmans knowledge and skill.)
After seeing this add. I will purchase elsewhere.
What a shame, Henry Moissen should take credit for this not these people. If it wasn't for Dr Moissen these moissanite diamonds wouldn't be able to be created.
selling beach sand as diamond true american dream
Funny thing is, diamonds are just rocks as well
*** DENTING or SCRATCHING (hardness)
Limited Warranty ? Lame, my wife's diamond has life time warranty, and most certified diamonds are.
It looks good, still think diamonds are better. Cheers!!
I hope you had fun funding wars in Africa.
check out my unboxing of my engagement ring! It just came in
I used to work with a dentist who was engaged to a computer engineer. To impress her parents they spent together $75,000 on her engagement ring. It was stunning, huge, I didn't believe it was real. She said after the wedding she hardly wore it and they only bought it to impress her parents, so when they went back to try and resell it, jewelers weren't even offering her half of what they paid. She was so pissed telling the story she said that its the worst investment anyone can make.
That's crazy... 75k for a ring. If she went to a pawn shop, they'll probably offer her like 10k-20k or smth, maybe even less lol
At the end it is only a fake dimond and nothing else 😒
@MrXAVIERDB sucks but unless we all have a brother in law or friend in africa who can dig it up to us..there is not much we can do if we want one..business is business..so you always pay un upfee - even hefty ones..oh well..but you can shop smart and find deals..even at pawnshops..
Don’t be fooled, this is not like a Diamond 💎
It’s a cheap piece of glass that is being Hyped up
what
I love them both, prefer the man mined. Do not like the blood associated with them though. Watch the movie Blood Diamond. But that's the nature of the beast.
Love it, more affordable. Real diamonds carry awful blood with them. But they are so gorgeous. But yes, I love moissanite too! C
Sharon Vaughn who is the beast you speak of?
What a thoroughly inappropriate thing to say and for another thing, doesn't have anything to do with moissanite and the info clip. What you say speaks volumes for you and your 'bitch'. If my boyfriend or husband called me, he wouldn't know what hit him when I got through with him.
LMAO THEY SHINE HARDER THEN DIAMONDS
just a fake diamond
It's not a fake diamond. Its a gemstone that happens to look like a diamond.
It shouldn't be this eXpencieve anyway,since it is fake!!.Well you sell it at the price of 10 percent of a diamond !! which tells a lot,right ??
Just go find a real diamond and compare them with mois for yourself,head to head and see the differance!!!
Its made in a lab (lab created) in Carolina. Its synthetic, nothing real about it. Cubic Zirconia is also lab created.
LOOKS BETTER THAN A DIAMOND..
AND NOBODY DIES FOR IT.
MyLink44 4ct how much?
A diamond is overpriced artificially made most of the time too. A real large perfect diamond is unavailable to most due to price. If you have a great income great for someone like you.
Diamonds are scams anyway the markups are high as fck
Diamonds are the biggest scam in the history of the world. The diamond industry mines so many diamonds per year that they have to lock the vast majority of them up in vaults just to create the illusion of artificial scarcity. Moisanite however was originally discovered from an asteroid and is extremely rare. My mom just bought herself a 1.5 carat brilliant moisanite ring for 1700. If the ring was a dimaond it would have cost 10,000.
Moissanite=fake people
It`s no better than diamond. The money in the bank is there. Diamonds worth more money with time. They`re a way better investment. ¿ How about 1 ct., G color, VS1 ?
Diamonds=a check with no expiration date.
Enjoy being poor. Idiot.
long story short......basically moisanite is the BEST FAKE diamond you can buy
Faux "Diamonds".
Can't trick majority of testers,even some high end multi tester,metal/diamonds/cvd and moisenite.
They don't beep they say oult loud,14k,Lab,Cuz, Natural and moisenite so there's no mistake.All no matter the price can mess up calibration,but this is pretty easy and it's always been right always.
