Moissanite is honestly the world's most beautiful Gemstone. It is not only more beautiful than diamonds it also thougher than diamonds for a fraction of the price.
No, it’s not tougher than diamonds. I know. I have had a Moissanite engagement ring since 1999. Nobody knew about Moissanite back then. They thought I had a diamond. I’m so glad I’ve had it all these decades, but it’s not as good as a diamond. I am on my fourth stone. First got fractured when I swung my arm near my car. Replaced that second one with an Amora, which was supposed to be whiter because the first two Moissanites were L-M color grade. That one was scratched to hell after 4-5 years and I didn’t think it looked whiter at all. The fourth was a Forever One Moissanite, color grade D-F and I’m still wearing it. It looks great, but I still see scratches under 10x mag. I see absolutely no scratches on my mom’s 3rd carat diamond after 70 years. I plan to buy a lab diamond in the next few years. Not a natural, but definitely not keeping my Moissanite forever. For me, it’s not a forever stone. It’s simply a step up to a diamond.
Great video. I pick up my engagement ring this week and have been watching engagement ring/diamond videos to pass the time. Your channel is vastly underrated. Such great content.
A lot of younger people like lab diamond because it’s green. They would buy a used lab diamond 💎 for the same reason. Like adopting a pet from a shelter. Especially because it’s the same crystal exactly as the highest quality earth diamond.
Moissanite prices have really come down since China/India flooded the market. While Charles & Colvard sells their Forever One 1 ct colorless loose stone for $600. The Asian offerings is less than $100 for that loose stone. For people on a budget, the $1500 (C&C) vs $500 (Asian) for an engagement ring is a pretty substantial difference.
Some people might not actually want Ideal or Excellent cut. The “Old mine cut” is very deep with low amount of fire, but it has a unique vintage classy look. Sometimes “ideal cut” has so much fire that it looks almost like CZ.
I’m not informed enough to speak on moissanites. But lab diamonds - there are plenty of flawed lab diamonds. You make it sound as if they all come out perfect colour, clarity etc because they are man made. this is not the case, they are made by mimicking the conditions of natural diamonds and therefore come out exactly like natural diamonds - sometimes flawed. I’m not sure if this a selling tactic from yourselves? It made me stop watching this video as I do not trust your knowledge.

That is so important to hear! Thank you for your kind words and support! Makes me want to do more videos like that.

I have multiple moissanites and natural dimonds and ALL my moissanite is much more beautiful. I will never buy another dimond only moissanite.
Does your store have a website?
yes. it's www.ninavova.com
excellent video. 😀
Doubt lab are majority of perfect color and clarity. So many flawed lab diamonds out there.
