What is Moissanite?
Moissanite was first discovered by French chemist Henri Moissan in 1893, while he was studying rock samples from a meteorite crater in Arizona. Moissanite is composed of silicon carbide, a mineral that is naturally found in meteorites, as well as in some rare mineral deposits on earth. It is extremely rare to find moissanite in its natural form on earth, but scientists have been able to replicate the mineral in a laboratory setting since the early 1990s.
The beauty of a Moissanite engagement ring
Moissanite engagement rings have become an increasingly popular choice for couples looking for a beautiful and affordable alternative to diamond engagement rings. Moissanite is a gemstone with a unique chemical composition that gives it several advantages over other gemstones, particularly diamonds.
At Serendipity Diamonds, we work with Starlight Moissanite, one of the beautiful and high colour and clarity types of this gemstone. As a result, our designs feature a whiteness and clarity to rival any of our diamond engagement rings.
Why do people choose this gemstone over a diamond?
One of the main advantages comes from its brilliance and fire. Its higher refractive index results in greater increased sparkle and brilliance. As a result, it makes a popular choice for engagement rings. Some buyers maintain it looks more beautiful than a diamond in certain lighting conditions.
In addition, it makes an affordable choice for a natural diamond. As such it makes an ideal choice for anyone on a tight budget.
Another advantage of moissanite is its durability. Moissanite is one of the hardest minerals on earth, with a rating of 9.25 on the Mohs scale of hardness (diamond is rated at 10). This means resistance to breakage, scratches and chips, making it an ideal choice for an engagement ring that will be worn every day.
Moissanite is also a more environmentally friendly option than diamond. Diamond mining can have a devastating impact on the environment, with large amounts of soil and rock being displaced and habitats being destroyed. Moissanite, on the other hand, just like a lab-grown diamond originate from a laboratory using sustainable methods, with no impact on the environment.
