Moissanite

Naturally occurring moissanite was first discovered in 1893. Natural occuring moissanite remains extremely rare. Scientists have since developed the thermal growing process that creates silicon carbide crystals; lab grown moissanites, a diamond alternative which delivers socially responsible and eternally brilliant gemstones. 

Charles and Colvard is the world's leading premium brand of moissanites, creating new standards with the ForeverOne moissanite. This extraordinary gemstone is of the highest standard of quality: VVS clarity and D-F colour. Moissanite is a brilliant choice as an alternative to diamond. 

What's the difference? 

1. At 9.25 on the Mohs hardness scale, it is nearly as hard as a diamond and harder than any other gemstone.

2. It has more fire, brilliance and luster.

3. It is conflict free and eco-friendly.

4. It is a fraction of the cost of a comparable diamond.

Moissanite is available in the classic round brilliant cut shape as well as princess, oval, pear, cushion, ascher, emerald, radiant, marquise, trillion, and heart shapes.
