The truth about Moissanite

  The biggest difference between Moissanite and Diamonds:

   1. Moissanite is silicon carbide and diamond is carbon;

   2. Moissanite stone will float when placed in specific gravity, and the specific gravity of the diamond will sink;

   3. The Moissanite stone has a ghost image, and there is no ghost image in the diamond body;

   4. Moissanite is a birefringent gemstone, and a diamond is a single-refraction gemstone;

   5. Moissanite stone fire color is warm light, diamond fire color is cold light;

   6. Most of the Moissanite is an electrical conductor, and the diamond is less of an electrical conductor.

  Moissanite 's fire is better than other gems, first look at its cut and polished. Diamond gems, in addition to cutting and polishing, have one more condition than ordinary colored gems, that is the selection of color grades. 

  The whiter the background color, the less color dialysis passes, and the relatively reflected The fire is also slightly weaker. The color of the slightly yellowish GHI color is generally stronger than some high-color diamonds. Therefore, from our professional point of view, it is recommended that you make different choices based on the occasions you wear more often.

  If there are more meetings during the day, it is more suitable to choose the main stone of DEF color. Because daytime light and indoor light easily distinguish the color level of the main stone. In this environment, fire is less likely to appear, so you don't have to care too much about fire.

  After entering the night, the basic background is dark. In a restaurant with a soft lighting environment, or after going to work to sing K, this time, the fire color is more prominent, and the color becomes secondary. Of course, if you have a good budget, you can start with two characteristics. Moissanite jewelry is the best to show the beauty of Moissanite.

  The internal structure, numerical value and appearance of Moissanite are strikingly similar to diamonds. The use of diamond pen detection is also judged as a diamond, which is difficult to distinguish. But Moissanite gemstone is able to shine brighter than diamonds, and the fire is even more amazing, and the price is only 1/10 of the diamond! The fire color of Moissanite can be so beautiful because of the physical, chemical and optical properties of its crystal.

  This gem has a very high refractive index of 2.65-2.69 (2.42 for diamonds), a dispersion index of 0.104 (0.044 for diamonds) and a gloss ratio of 20.4 (17.2% for diamonds). At the same time, Moissanite has a hardness of 9.25, which is lower than that of South African diamonds. It is higher than other gemstones. Its high hardness makes it unsuitable for squandering and cracking and can be preserved forever.
