About Moissanite

What is Moissanite?
Moissanite is a gemstone made from silicon carbide, renowned for its stunning brilliance and hardness. Discovered by French chemist Henri Moissan in 1893 within a meteorite, moissanite is found naturally only in rare instances. As a result, most moissanite used in jewelry today is lab-created. We exclusively use Charles & Colvard Forever One Moissanites in our colorless moissanite pieces.

Hardness
Moissanite displays a hardness rating of 9.25 on the Mohs scale, making it one of the hardest gemstones available, just slightly softer than diamonds, which are rated 10. This impressive hardness means moissanite is highly resistant to scratching and wear, ensuring that it maintains its brilliance and polish over time. Its durability makes it an excellent choice for everyday jewelry, including engagement rings and other pieces that are subject to frequent use.
- The Mohs scale is a measurement system used to assess and compare the hardness of minerals. Developed by Friedrich Mohs in 1812, it assigns a ranking from 1 to 10 to minerals based on their ability to scratch or be scratched by other minerals. This scale provides a simple and practical way to understand the relative hardness of different minerals, with 1 being the softest (e.g., talc) and 10 the hardest (e.g., diamond).

Color Range
Colorless to Near-Colorless
Most moissanites are available in near-colorless grades, which appear very similar to diamonds and are often labeled as D-E-F on the color scale. They exhibit minimal to no color, making them ideal for those seeking a diamond-like appearance.
Fancy Colors
While less common, moissanite can be produced in fancy colors, including shades like pink, blue, and green.
