Will Moissanite Last?
Choosing your forever ring is a big decision. If you’re here, you’re probably aware of Moissanite. Moissanite engagement and wedding rings continue to grow in popularity, however the quality and longevity of these stones is often queried. So, in this blog post we deep dive on the question: Will moissanite last?
Moissanite is a high-quality, genuine gemstone and will not scratch, or change in appearance with cloudiness or colour. Moissanite is comprised of the chemical compound silicon carbide (SiC), which is extremely durable, impermeable, and the perfect stone to last a lifetime as your engagement ring or wedding band.
Moissanite is also a much better option than other diamond alternatives such as cubic zirconia or crystal. While these stones can look similar, they don’t possess the quality required for long lasting jewellery. Moissanite is an extremely durable stone, measuring a 9.25 on the Mohs scale which assesses the hardness of a stone. Comparatively, a diamond is classified as a 10 on the Mohs scale, a cubic zirconia is approximately an 8 and crystal measures at approximately a 7.
We source our own, highest quality Moissanite, with the best colour and clarity and our highly skilled jewellers precisely cut your Moissanite stone to optimise the brilliance and enhance its natural beauty.
