Moissanite vs Lab diamond vs Cubic Zirconia vs Natural diamond. What's right for you?

[tigermagda]

Only diamonds can scratch a Moissanite. As there aren't many things around made of diamonds, I would say Moissanite is pretty durable!

[LordDirus]

Moissanite is like a Jewelry hack. Looks better, just as durable and is a fraction of the Price

[billhickman]

Lab hands down. Stop the natural diamond scam

[yahawaschild]

Moisssanite is only a .5 difference on hardness diamond being 10 and moisssanite being 9.5. Moisssanite actually has more fire and brilliance than a diamond.

[MotorcycleDoorSalesmannnnnnn]

The fact that it takes highly specialized equipment to differentiate.

[Pyrohunts]

a lot of jewerliers dont want you to buy mossinate beacuse it hurrs there business and they can no longer rip off people with so called real diamonds

Moissanite Gang! 💯 If I want to invest in jewelry, I would buy gold. Try taking your Diamond 💍 and see what the jeweler would buy it for. It’s like a car, Diamond drops value soon as the exchange happens and you won’t get that 💰 back. Gold chains hold value. Gold to hold, Moissanite for show.

I own genuine diamond jewerly as well as moissanite jewerly much of which is in a pave style setting. My favorite ring is my diamond cluster ring so I went and bought a moissanite cluster ring to match it and like 2 pendants due to all the hype around moissanite I've been reading about. I can def. See why a lot of people like it. It has a lot more fire and is very bright. Me personally tho i don't prefer too much fire. Also the way they interact with light is slightly different. I love the way my diamonds seem to flicker crisp and effortlessly with bold and quick flashes of white light. Moissanite to me isn't as crisp and doesn't have that "twinkle" effect I love. They seem to me more "blurry" with a lot of rainbow sparkle and with less depth and crispness. Idk kinda hard to explain unless you have them in person side by side.

I will say moissanite is super freakin bright when the light hits the surface at the right angles. But then again they aren't suppose to look like diamonds the way cz is made to look like a diamonds. They are their own gemstone. And tho CZ replicates the way diamonds interact with light more so then moissy does, they are much more dull and and the extreme external rainbow light gives them away as being fake. Moissy has a lot of rainbow sparkle but it seems to be more internal if that Makes sense.

But regardless they both do what the other can't it's all about preference. CZ is out the picture for me. I won't waste a dime on it. But I won't hate on the next man for wearing it. Not everyone has hundreds or thousands to splurge on stones that don't really hold their value unless they are at a certain karat weight/cut/clarity or made by Tiffany ect.

So ya I prefer diamonds over any other stone but I still and will still rock moissanite cause it looks real nice and unique. But for me nothing beats or can replicate the way a well cut diamond interacts with light. And moiss Def. Does Interacts with light differently. So don't go buying moissy expecting it to perform the same way diamonds do because you'll be a bit dissapointed. Anyways sorry for the long ass comment I'm out lol.

"Moissanite is less durable"

Man, we talking about 9.25 mohs hardness vs 10 mohs hardness, the difference is negligible, they are pretty much as durable. So, since Moissanites are just brighter and sparklier... AND FREAKING 10 TIMES CHEAPER!!! They are clearly better.

Plus natural Moissanite (not lab crated) is actually a good amount rarer than diamonds

Why would I pay 10 times more for a duller gem that's just a tiny bit harder? Diamonds are a scam.

Diamonds are just expensive because they are diamonds, they are the popular very hard and expensive gemstone everyone knows. They are not unique nor the best.

Diamonds are just for those rich guys that like to brag about having diamonds lmao

I love moissanite. Definitely my favourite gemstone. I'm biased because my engagement ring is a moissanite and i am obsessed with it's rainbow sparkle and steely grey undertones. My fiancee (we're both women) chose a garnet for her engagement ring because it's her favourite stone and the dark brown red maroon of the garnet looks perfect on her more olive skin s
tone. Definitely do like diamonds but i would never want to part with that much money for jewelry. Even my moissanite engagement ring was second hand. A 1ct forever brilliant charles and colvard solitaire in 18ct gold for £120 and a year in it still looks perfect. The setting is super durable and well made and the stone is stunning to me. But i knew I wanted a non diamond engagement ring so it was choosing between a moissanite and a pink sapphire. Non diamond rings are really common in the UK. I think more common than in the US.

I love the double refraction of moisanite

Moissanite: create in lab, ingredients: some chemical, so its cheap

Natural Diamond: create in nature, ingredients: poor black people, munitions, blood, black dollar. So it's expensive

[tigeto]

In my opinion, Moissanite will always be better than diamond

[jerrelhurenkamp]

Yea but there's so much diamond in the ground. It's not rare. So gimme the cheap one.

[funnygaming]

cz are very common in real gold jewelry ...that stone is not for costume jewelry at all. costume jewelry use glass and plastic !

[katiemilady]

Im def a moissanite girl❤ extra sparkly and priced affordably. Plus, im always worried about blood diamonds.

[sublimesamoyed]

Moissanite first, followed by lab Diamond.

[nicolebaladad]

CZ has come so far! People don’t realize a high quality CZ can be as hard as an 8 or 9 on the mohs scale which is harder than most other natural gemstones. They are lab created gemstones NOT glass or plastic. High quality CZ I believe look more like diamonds. Moissanite are beautiful but def have their own look much warmer and more rainbowy in the light. I’m not a jeweler lol just my opinion seeing all stones in person and my in depth google “ research “

[erislee]

Diamond had a heavenly shine 😇 under the camera the rest only sparkled ✨

[shlyw]

People keep going about how diamond is harder than moissanite but let me remind you guys we dare to buy pearls necklace for hundred of thousands dollars and a mere drop of vinegar can disintegrate that pearls. So yeah, buy that moissanite or CZ. Save money.
