Why choose Moissanite?
What Is Moissanite?
Moissanite is a gemstone born from the stars...literally. First discovered in 1893 by French scientist Henri Moissan inside a meteor crater in Arizona, it was initially mistaken for diamond due to its intense sparkle. Once studied, it revealed itself as a completely unique mineral: silicon carbide, an incredibly strong, brilliant, and rare crystal.
Because natural moissanite is extremely scarce, today it is ethically lab-grown, allowing you to enjoy its celestial beauty without the environmental or financial impact of mining.

Why Moissanite Shines Brighter
Moissanite is known for having a higher refractive index than diamonds, which means it bends light more intensely. This gives it a fire and sparkle that’s often described as:
- Rainbow brilliance
- Diamond like, but more dazzling
- A cosmic glow
It’s captivating, elegant, and unforgettable.
