Want to save money on your engagement ring? Embrace the trending gemstone of the moment, moissanite<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

Have you ever heard of moissanite? It\u2019s a glittering, clear white gemstone that is also called a \u201cspace diamond\u201d or \u201cstardust.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Moissanite gets its celestial nicknames from its origin story. This sparkling gem was first discovered in 1893 by a man named Henri Moissan. Mr. Moissan, a French scientist, investigated a meteorite inside a crater in Arizona and found what he thought were diamonds. However, on closer inspection, he realized that the crystals in the meteor were made of silicon carbide and were a totally new kind of gemstone, which he named Moissanite after himself.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Natural moissanite is incredibly rare, so most of the moissanite you see today has been created in a lab. This moissanite looks the same as natural moissanite and has the same chemical composition. <\/span><\/p>\n

Moissanite has become a trending engagement ring option for a few different reasons. One is that this dazzling gemstone looks very similar to a diamond but has a much nicer price tag.<\/span><\/p>\n

When compared to a diamond, moissanite stacks up very well. It\u2019s similarly hard and just as brilliant. However, the shimmer that comes from a moissanite has a different pattern. It\u2019s much more fiery (which means the light it reflects splits up into rainbows). <\/span><\/p>\n

And, like we said above, the price of moissanite is amazing. For example, a one carat diamond with respectable 4C gradings would likely run you upwards of $4,000. A comparable moissanite, on the other hand, would likely only cost around $600 or less. For something that looks so similar, that\u2019s a steal.<\/span><\/p>\n

Think of all the things you could do with all the money you\u2019d save getting a moissanite engagement ring<\/span> instead of a diamond engagement ring. You could go on an incredible trip or dine at the finest restaurants. Or, you could put that money toward a new car or a down payment on a house. These are just ideas\u2014 you could always spend your original budget on a moissanite ring and just get a much larger, flashier ring. The choice is yours. <\/span><\/p>\n

One last thing in moissanite\u2019s favor? It\u2019s eco friendly. Since most moissanite you\u2019d see today is created in a lab, it creates far less environmental impact than a natural diamond would. So, moissanite is not only a gemstone that will save you money, it\u2019s also one that helps to save the environment. That\u2019s a win-win. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
