Moissanite Engagement Rings Buying Guide
Moissanite gives you diamond-level sparkle at a fraction of the price. Here is what to check before you buy one.
Why moissanite is a smart choice
Moissanite is nearly as hard as diamond (9.25 on the Mohs scale), has a higher refractive index for extra fire, and costs roughly 10-15 percent of a comparable diamond. For everyday wear it stays brilliant and scratch-resistant. Shop moissanite rings.

What to check when buying
Look at color grade (colorless DEF is best), cut quality, and whether the stone is certified. Ask for the stone size in millimeters, not just carat weight, because moissanite is lighter than diamond. Ask us for a price quote.
