My moissanite engagement ring custom designed by my husband and Jordan is stunning. Modern Goldsmith made my ultimate ring dream a reality. ❤ I love that I can wear it and no one *ever* knows it's not a diamond, we didn't overspend on a stone, AND I didn't have to contribute to the exploitation that occurs frequently to wear a naturally occurring diamond.
Yes!! Diamond is my birthstone, but I hate the conflict that has come with mining diamonds and I think they are over-used. I prefer different stones and I use diamond alternatives when I want a stome like that. My FAVORITE is morganite though. I love it so much.
@@jlo1423 Do you work for a diamond company or something? Why are you commenting on every comment? Moissanite isn't a fake diamond, it's just a different gemstone that happens to have similar properties. Lots of gemstones share similarities. You do realise that diamonds are actually pretty worthless, they aren't rare at all. De beers own the majority of diamond mines in the world, and while there are vast amounts of diamonds in the ground they are careful to release just enough to satisfy the market each year, thereby keeping prices high. If you want to buy an overly priced gemstone that will massively depreciate in value the moment you buy it, go ahead. Personally I'd rather not fund such a corrupt industry, not to mention all the human rights violations.
@@jlo1423 fake is when something is misrepresented. Passed off as something it's not. A lab grown moissanite is a moissanite so it's not fake. Telling people your moissanite stone is a diamond makes you fake
Anyone who knows diamonds can tell by the optics and double images. Moisanite is a simulant, not a real diamond. However, he is spot on when it comes to lab grown diamonds
Having a conflict-free stone was one of the most important things to me in an engagement ring. You can't do anything about how antique jewelry was created, but you absolutely can control how you produce/obtain your jewelry today, and I personally never wanted to wear a daily, lifelong reminder of a business that would potentially create my ring amid a violation of human rights. My engagement ring stone is an asscher cut, lab-grown moissanite, and I appreciate every time I take a long, close look at my ring that my fiance gifted me a ring that was produced ethically, and that we share this value.
@@VeroSCIA they're definitely a valid option! I'm pretty sure I have an heirloom ring that has one, but it's not something I wanted for my engagement ring, since they're very cloudy looking in person.
I have a 2ct moissanite/18kt engagement ring and I LOVE it! I’m a geologist and love that the first naturally occurring silicon carbide crystals came from meteorites and then SCIENCE figured out how to replicate them into beautiful gemstones. I love natural diamonds too, rough uncut ones anyway, but the conflict-free aspect of moissanite was also very appealing.
Always great to read a professional geologist's take on the silicon carbide crystal moissanite. I love diamonds too and love my new moissanite ring also.
My bf went w/Moissanite.. he was able to get a bigger stone & it didn’t affect the bank so we had more $ for house down payment( you can’t live in a diamond).
My friend introduced me to moissanite many years ago and I was hesitant at first. The more I looked into, the more I wanted it. I am so happy I chose it over a diamond.
This is EXTREMELY comforting! I just purchased a moissanite wedding band to match my engagement ring I have had for seven years. I was really hesitant to purchase one. But we couldn't beat the price... Also it is gorgeous!!!
My husband just upgraded my center stone with a moissanite, and I absolutely love it. No one can tell it’s “not a diamond” and he got a much larger stone than my original diamond for far less money. It was such a lovely surprise.
Just tell people it's a Mossinite 💎 , you shouldn't care if they think it's a diamond or not, you should be proud of how well it looks and how much money your husband saved by being thrifty
@@caylee3277 that’s awesome! I use a microfiber cloth for daily/weekly cleaning and used jewelry cleaner once after some paint got on it (my oldest loves to use acrylics and I was helping her clean up) to ensure I got it all out of every nook and cranny. Overall I find the moissanite looks clean longer than the diamonds that flank it and shines far more brightly. But he took me from a 1/2 carat diamond to a 2 carat moissanite, so the size might have something to do with the additional shine 😊
I seriously LOVE my Moissanite ring!! I never knew I had a choice in choosing something other than a questionable diamond until you told me I had options. Thanks Modern Goldsmith, I love my ring!
LOVE my moissanite ring! I wasn't sure what type of ring I wanted, but I knew I didn't want a diamond (for several reasons) but my fiance was drawn to more "traditional" styles. When he told me about moissanite, it just clicked. I was so into the "space diamond" aspect of it (I've always been a bit of a moon baby, drawn to the celestial) and it's just the perfect fit for me. It's so brilliant! I highly recommend it to anyone who wants that beautiful diamond look without all of the icky ethical/commercial aspects.
If my husband and I ever decide to “upgrade” our original wedding rings we will probably go with moissanite. I don’t actually think we would need or want to that though for multiple reasons. I mean, my wedding rings basically never leave my finger. I LIKE having a smaller size stone, thank you very much. I specifically told him that I didn’t want a large stone on a ring that would wear every day. I like that my rings feel like they have become part of my hand. The fit was completely perfect too. His parents gave my husband his mom’s first wedding rings (they “upgraded” rings after 25 years of marriage.). A completely perfect fit from his mother’s ring. I also told my husband that I liked vintage things that had history to them, and that I would be super proud to have an engagement/wedding ring that had family history. He decided right then that I DEFINITELY a “keeper”.
Just set the main moissanite amongst genuine diamonds in the new setting and the refraction of those onto the moissanite Taking away the rainbow. It will turn out fabulous.
I went with moissanite because I wanted a larger stone and didn’t want to spend as much as a diamond costs. And let me tell you… it’s gorgeous. The brilliance and shine is amazing. If I had gone with diamond my ring would have easily been 3-4x the cost. I’m very proud to have a moissanite wedding ring!
I've been married almost 15 years and I have a diamond that is beautiful and I love it very much, but if I had known about Moissanite back then I would have chosen it for my engagement ring. I like that it is ethical, and I own a Moissanite now and it's so beautiful and sparkly. I am so in love with it! I love diamonds, but they are way overpriced and I think Moissanite is just as beautiful.
@@jlo1423 that's not true.. Diamonds are literally overpriced Diamonds are not particularly rare. In fact, compared to other gemstones, they’re the most common precious stone found.
I have many natural diamonds I wear all the time, I bought a moissanite ring from a reputable jeweller and wow it sparkles more than my diamonds except my yellow diamond and they are on a par with each other. I would buy Moissanite again in a heartbeat and they are definitely conflict free.
@@jlo1423 I am not interested in monopoly games. I have plenty of diamonds, they are much more affordable in Australia, the lucky country, than any other country in the world. I do not buy diamonds to sell and make money and moissanite is a beautiful stone even if it is lab grown.
@@jlo1423 what's wrong with being smart enough to know where to spend a money? And why do you have to comment on everyone's facts and opinions here? My god almost comments here you have a disgusting answer. Keep it to yourself dear. We dont want your worthless comments.
My moissanite ring cost about $600. Couldn't be happier! The thought of spending thousands on a ring always seemed ridiculous to me 🤷♀️ and I'm so glad there's a great alternative
thank you so much for this video. my husband and I decided on moissanite to allow for everything I loved and wanted. I got a 5-carat diamond equivalent, hearts and arrows cut, platinum bands, and half eternity on both the engagement and wedding ring. we could not have afforded this with a diamond stone! plus I rather have the fire and brilliance of a moissy. bravo to De Beers for the successful marketing campaign and no shame to diamond lovers, I'm just happy this alternative is becoming known and popular!
Thank you for making this video. My fiance & I are in our 40s we each have 3 children, 3 currently in college, 3 to go. It would be ridiculous to have another expensive diamond. I LOVE my 1.5 ct oval moissionite engagement ring!💓💍
I’ve been absolutely loving your videos! I used to hobby metalsmith when I was in high school (as I had access to my school’s metal and glass shop). I really want to get back into it when I have my own place to make my own wee shop. I’ve also asked my bf to go with a moissanite rather than a diamond (unless his family has an heirloom stone) for me as moissanites throw rainbow fire rather than white fire and RAINBOW SPARKLES are so me 😅💗✨
Can make a video where you explain the process of how you choose a moissanite when designing a custom engagement ring? Do you prefer a specific brand, do your clients buy it and give it to you, etc? Thank you so much for your videos! They’re so informative and beautiful!
My ring is a moissanite and we are very happy with it. My husband and I were able to get a very beautiful set that I love without spending an arm and a leg!
My fiancé gave me my fave cut in a moissanite. Having an asscher cut has always been my dream, and he did it so right. It’s brilliance is gorgeous, and I get so many compliments. I’m also very happy he didn’t spend a ridiculous amount of money for it.
I just got a moissanite ring for Christmas just because I loved the unique "dutch marquise" cut and the teal blue/green color of the stone so much that my husband ordered it (he was pretty happy with the price of this one.) It's just as gorgeous as my lab grown diamond wedding ring! Even with it being a colored stone, it sparkles brilliantly! I'm so lucky to have been given one!
My brother and his fiancée went shopping for a ring. A jeweler told him a story about how most people can't tell the difference at first sight and even some jewelers have trouble. That sold him on it. His fiancée wanted a sizable stone and the moissanite made it all a lot less expensive and just as beautiful.
True. I've fooled jewellers in bright lights. It's when your in cosy, soft lights, you see it's more green blue light that bounces off. But in very bright lights, it looks like a diamond.
YES! I love Moissanite. I personally love synthetic stones (that are done well) because you have the opportunity to get the best qualities of the stones without so many drawbacks, especially the ethical concerns. Pricing and quality for price is huge, like you mention, as well.
As a person who is fortunate that I can afford any stone I want, I still LOVE and prefer moissanite for so many reasons, including just sticking it to debeers and all these evil mining corporations
Debeers isn't the only place to sell diamonds ffs, people are so misinformed. Shop around and you can find very affordable diamonds. I should know, I own several pieces that didn't rob me blind.
@@trevorphillips3340 Well thanks for educating us when you clearly have no knowledge of the diamond industry either. I am a collector, know the industry well and people come to me for help when buying a diamond. I have more diamonds on one hand than you have probably ever seen but I still prefer moissanite. You must be getting Jared's black friday discount and think you are up on this.
@@noriginal2546 you went from saying you don't have any stones to suddenly having many on your hand. Well that doesn't sound like a steaming pile of bs at all. any more lies you'd like to add??
I love the rainbow flashes I see in my moissanite ring. It's so entrancing to watch and I think it looks way more magical than the way diamonds sparkle. ♥️💍
I have a few Moissanite rings. They are awesome - a much better price than a diamond, and they actually give off more sparkles than diamonds. Some - depending in the cut - have a ‘disco ball’ appearance. I have both a lab-grown diamond and moissanites. The diamond gives off more white sparkles and moissanites give off more rainbow colours.
I love Moissanite and can’t wait to have my wedding set made. Me and my husband had a Covid 19 wedding on 6-13-2020, after rescheduling or formal one, and I got a pink tourmaline center stone ring as it is his birthstone. I get to where a little piece of him everyday but my dream ring for our formal wedding that will take place 8-13-2022 will have a Moissanite center stone. Love the videos and can’t wait to see more!!!!
When my fiance and I were talking engagement rings, I was doing research into different stones. I knew of the ethical issues behind mined diamonds but it is my birthstone and I wanted something very similar to it. Every other video comparing moissanite to diamond said that the latter had more fire -- but I very much agree that moissanite shines rainbows more than diamond!! It was the deciding factor that made me want moissanite: I thought the fire made the stone prettier
Exactly my reasoning! And diamond is my birthstone too, lmao! I could get a diamond the same size, but why would I spend more for something that isn't as pretty and probably has some bad vibes and blood in it's history... Nah fam, there is no reason to buy diamond anymore, except personal preference ofc. Anyway, you have great taste clearly!
Of course they won't! In time people will want real diamonds again and the price will sky rocket due to the demand (as minning will stop the prices will go up) you buy fake diamonds (moissanite, CS, glass) then they will be cheap because your buying a cheap stone. Its like gold rings! A plated gold ring tho it looks like gold will never be worth what a REAL solid gold ring is worth! Jewellers will tell you go for moissanite because it cost them pennies and they make hundreds/thousands from silly uneducated people.
@@jlo1423 A true moissanite is beautiful but some sellers try to pass off the fake cubic zirconia as moissanite and that is probably why you are so against lab grown diamonds and moissanite which are both very expensive to buy unlike cheap cubic zirconia lol
I use to work with Saks in their jewelry department. I’ve seen some of the world’s best, a the moissanite outshine!!! Diamonds are no longer my best friend; moissanite is my ride or die!
@@jlo1423 cubic zirconia is fake and looks it, moissanite is lab grown as are lab grown diamonds and not at all like the fake cubic zirconia. The only exception is a Swarovski zirconia which is superior to cubic zirconia.
@@janrose7897 magpies can't compare a solid gold ring to a plated one or a natural diamond to a man made lab grown diamond or moissanite. The facts are DeBeers hold these stones back to increase their value and in doing so natural stones will ALWAYS hold more value than man made ones. This goes for the actual gold in your metal and craftsmenship. Being genuine is a rarity, being copied is a compliment. Nothing like the real thing.
@@jlo1423 I am not interested in DeBeers monopoly on diamonds. The fact is the consensus seems to be deduced from replies on here, including one from a professional Geologist, that moissanite is a beautiful lab grown stone.
My wife has a one carat moissanite center stone, with a carat of natural princess stones. You cannot tell the difference. It is a beautiful alternative.
Hi Jordan, I am a big fan of your channel! I just wanted to thank you for introducing me to moissanite. I am currently in community college, and this video inspired me to write a discussion post about the chemical properties of moissanite and include some of the benefits you talk about. I hope some of my classmates enjoy the discussion!
My ring is gorgeous, I get compliments daily because it's big but not grossly big. And surrounded by other stones with twiting post with even more stones up the sides of the engagement ring and the wedding band. It's moissanite. It's dazzling and I adore it!! It sparkles sooooo much I love it.
Getting ready to make my first diamond piece using a .5 carat moissanite. I had no idea that it is more brilliant than real diamond, definitely will keep me coming back to this stone.
My Moissonite engagement ring is beautiful, and has great luminance. I got it in a marquise cut, which diminishes some of the fire and makes it look even more diamond like. We chose it because Moissonite is conflict free ❤️ plus it’s super budget friendly!
I love rose cut too! When I was in silver smithing school, I would buy up all of the rose cut stones that I could find at my gem store. Now I order direct from India. I can't believe the difference. Have a great year ♥
My girlfriend told me about moissanite. She said when I pop the question get moissanite instead of a diamond because we can put all that razzle dazzle money that a diamond would cost into something for sensible that could benefit us as a couple. When she said that I fell in love even more. She's absolutely gorgeous and not too many women nowadays would say that. And to see this video really made me feel a lot better about it. I'm eyeing a 2 carat one set in platinum that's right under 3k
I have a moissanite engagement ring as well (and small diamonds on my wedding band), and it was a much cheaper alternative than a diamond ring. You can't tell the difference between the moissante and diamonds, and no one can tell either. It's so sparkly and I absolutely love it!!
My engagement ring is moissanite! It’s sooooo sparkly & beautiful. Was also significantly cheaper than diamond. I also love that it originates from meteors! Highly underrated gem.
I love mine! Especially how the way it refracts light brings a more rainbow effect! Though I did have an odd experience... after hearing about moissanite from the jeweler we ended up getting the ring custom made from, we went to another just to double check our options. When we asked this one (a national chain) about using moissanite, they said “we don’t do that because it yellows if left in a hot car”. Like... why would I leave a ring worth so much money in a hot car? Like ever? They recommended white sapphire, which looked so dull compared to what we ended up with. So glad to have my moissanite ring!!!
Just got a 10 carat moissanite ring and I am absolutely in love. Thank you for making such informative helpful videos and educating the public! Love your channel!
Thank you for your down to earth, snob free, real expertise. I have several simple pieces of Moissanite my favorite being my 1.5ct solitaire pendant. I never take it off unless to clean. After 5 years it still looks brilliant and amazing. When or if I should get engaged I already have a 3ct cushion cut in mind that I have been in love with. And if the BF doesn't pop the ? I'll get it for myself 😁
I love my moissanite! My fiancé got me a 1.5 oval solitaire for under $500 and was appraised well over that! When I saw a moissanite next to a diamond in person I knew I wanted all of that brilliance
You need a promo code. I was just talking to my bf about needing new earrings so I’m sending him a link to moissanite. Personally don’t care about diamonds specifically; but I love a white sparky stone so this is perfect for me.
Great video! I would love to see a similar video about sapphires or even about the different types of settings, metals, etc. It's overwhelming to try to find the "right" ring/materials but your video lays out the facts in a fun and entertaining way. Thanks for making!
Unfortunately I can tell the difference between a moissanite and diamond. It reminds me of a sparkly CZ… so it wasn’t an option for me. Still got my house and two post graduate degrees after that. Thankfully our jobs pay well, I have my own practice in addition and my guy is really good at accounting and saving ! 👌🏾
You are absolutely 110%.... CORRECT!..... Very good points made!!!It's about the " intrinsic value" or " sentimental value!"... More bling on the ring!!!!
He has a great warm relatable personality that is very UA-cam friendly without being obnoxious. That, coupled with a genuine love for his craft and some great production value of his videos, makes for a true gem (haha) of a channel. I'm glad the mighty algorithm gods looked his way favorably.
I bought a moissanite ring a while ago and it sparkles in the most beautiful way. The only trouble is that it’s set in sterling silver with an open (i.e. adjustable) ring design, so people would know it’s a cheaper alternative when they spot that. Perhaps I should’ve asked for a custom made ring that’s my size instead.
My Moissy Bridal set is absolutely stunning!! I have several diamond rings but they are dull in comparison. And not to mention the horrible things done to dig them up. Why would anyone want a diamond over a Moissanite is beyond me! Mine has so much depth and brilliance!! Just gorgeous! Never touching a diamond again!
My beautiful moissanite ring fell into the lake at our cottage when I had an accent with the dock. I usually take it off to go swimming and I forgot to. I had it 7 years and it cost us very little at the time. No one had ever heard of it. But when the jeweler showed us the papers of authentication and we saw that it was basically star dust, we were sold. It was just under $700 CAD at the time for 1CT, simple round cut. Now, jewelers near us and even online are asking $1,500 or more. Even the place we bought it from, who still had us on record, quoted us $2,000 CAD due to popularity. So almost 3 years later and I'm sill engagement ring-less because the price sky rocketed. Our 10 year wedding anniversary is August 2022 and I'm trying to find a reasonable place that sell this stone. Either way, BEST STONE EVER!
❤️ thank you so very much for your opinion! Agreed, as a retired Kindergarten Teacher . Money is a considerable factor! Non conflict is what it's all about ! I , personally, do not want any part of the process of obtaining diamonds for marketing sells
@@carinrichardson We were able to see it in person, but the stone was a round-cut. I haven't actually seen the moissanite yet. Should be here in a few weeks. This is my ring if you like to see it: assets.gabrielny.com/sod/SODRQ20753/processor/SOD-034217.mp4

Please add this to your SUPER SHORT To Do list, thanks! No, seriously would love to see if/when you have time!
I LOVE my antique style ring with moissanite cushion. It holds up to everything! And is just as brilliant 7 years later as day one! BEST choice for sure!
My bf just proposed to me on Christmas and got me the ring i really wanted and it was moissanite radiant cut, super stunning!! I divorcedy ex-husband about 7years ago and he got me a diamond ring but it wasnt as shiny as i wanted the to be, also because it was a cheaper option. Im so glad i get to research a better alternative on rings because i know for a fact that my partner doesnt have to suffer to buy me an expensive 3carat diamond, instead got me a reasonable price of 3carat size ring! Now we are engaged and saving our money to get a house!!
I love my moissanite ring!! I think it’s better than diamond in every single respect- one other thing I love about moissanite that you didn’t mention is that moissanite reflects in rainbow colors whereas diamond reflects only white
I don't think there's any other reason than it's cheaper. I'd say go with a sapphire as sapphire comes in all colors of the rainbow and its price depending on its rarity can rival a diamond easily. And it's utterly beautiful.
If clarity, weight, cut and size are the same, you'll get brilliance from a sapphire but you will get more refraction (colours in the flash) from a moissanite. You can buy both synthesized sapphires and moissanites but only naturally-formed jewellery grade sapphires. There are other gems that give you more "fire" than a moissanite but either they are not suitable for every day wear or should never be set into a ring.
Thank for this video. I do enjoy your videos because they are so informative. I want a new eternity band to celebrate my 30th. I am thinking about moissanite because I want the fire but not the size because I can't wear big things. I think you have convinced me to get that.🤣🧡
I’ve been married for 2 years now and I’ve never known about moissanite’s, until recently. My dear husband did gift me a lovely diamond ring, but if I had known about this, I might have considered it ☺️
My engagement ring is an Victorian /Edwardian trilogy with 1 carrat rose cut and half card at rose cut diamonds illusion set in platinum with 18carrat yellow gold band. You only need one look to recognise its antique it was made in time frame 1880s I love it it's been on my finger 51years yes husband has bought me several upgrades ( all ruby and diamond designs) but I just love the simplicity of this ring
They're such a beautiful stone. I like the way they look more than a diamond. And I'm cheap, and honestly I wouldn't wear an expensive ring, I'd be scared to lose it or damage it. I found a beautiful 14k gold moissanite ring under 900 bucks that we love.

I mean, my wedding rings basically never leave my finger. I LIKE having a smaller size stone, thank you very much. I specifically told him that I didn’t want a large stone on a ring that would wear every day. I like that my rings feel like they have become part of my hand. The fit was completely perfect too. His parents gave my husband his mom’s first wedding rings (they “upgraded” rings after 25 years of marriage.). A completely perfect fit from his mother’s ring. I also told my husband that I liked vintage things that had history to them, and that I would be super proud to have an engagement/wedding ring that had family history. He decided right then that I DEFINITELY a “keeper”.
Just set the main moissanite amongst genuine diamonds in the new setting and the refraction of those onto the moissanite Taking away the rainbow. It will turn out fabulous.
You got a like just off of a MOISSA RIGHT comment. Like your personality
literally same, i laughed out loud and hit like
Same, I liked immediately after that 😂😂😂😂
I went with moissanite because I wanted a larger stone and didn’t want to spend as much as a diamond costs. And let me tell you… it’s gorgeous. The brilliance and shine is amazing. If I had gone with diamond my ring would have easily been 3-4x the cost. I’m very proud to have a moissanite wedding ring!
Perfectly said
I've been married almost 15 years and I have a diamond that is beautiful and I love it very much, but if I had known about Moissanite back then I would have chosen it for my engagement ring. I like that it is ethical, and I own a Moissanite now and it's so beautiful and sparkly. I am so in love with it!
I love diamonds, but they are way overpriced and I think Moissanite is just as beautiful.
Cheap for a reason
@@jlo1423 that's not true.. Diamonds are literally overpriced
Diamonds are not particularly rare. In fact, compared to other gemstones, they’re the most common precious stone found.
I have many natural diamonds I wear all the time, I bought a moissanite ring from a reputable jeweller and wow it sparkles more than my diamonds except my yellow diamond and they are on a par with each other. I would buy Moissanite again in a heartbeat and they are definitely conflict free.
@@jlo1423 I am not interested in monopoly games. I have plenty of diamonds, they are much more affordable in Australia, the lucky country, than any other country in the world. I do not buy diamonds to sell and make money and moissanite is a beautiful stone even if it is lab grown.
@@jlo1423 what's wrong with being smart enough to know where to spend a money? And why do you have to comment on everyone's facts and opinions here? My god almost comments here you have a disgusting answer. Keep it to yourself dear. We dont want your worthless comments.
My moissanite ring cost about $600. Couldn't be happier! The thought of spending thousands on a ring always seemed ridiculous to me 🤷♀️ and I'm so glad there's a great alternative
I have a Moissanite engagement ring and I wouldn't change it in the world for a Diamond! It's stunning and flawless. ♥
I love my ring and I picked it out. It’s big N beautiful and it didn’t break my hubby’s bank
thank you so much for this video. my husband and I decided on moissanite to allow for everything I loved and wanted. I got a 5-carat diamond equivalent, hearts and arrows cut, platinum bands, and half eternity on both the engagement and wedding ring. we could not have afforded this with a diamond stone! plus I rather have the fire and brilliance of a moissy. bravo to De Beers for the successful marketing campaign and no shame to diamond lovers, I'm just happy this alternative is becoming known and popular!
my center stone for my engagement ring is a Moissanite and I love it! It is absolutely beautiful!
Thank you for making this video. My fiance & I are in our 40s we each have 3 children, 3 currently in college, 3 to go. It would be ridiculous to have another expensive diamond.
I LOVE my 1.5 ct oval moissionite engagement ring!💓💍
I’ve been absolutely loving your videos!
I used to hobby metalsmith when I was in high school (as I had access to my school’s metal and glass shop). I really want to get back into it when I have my own place to make my own wee shop.
I’ve also asked my bf to go with a moissanite rather than a diamond (unless his family has an heirloom stone) for me as moissanites throw rainbow fire rather than white fire and RAINBOW SPARKLES are so me 😅💗✨
Can make a video where you explain the process of how you choose a moissanite when designing a custom engagement ring? Do you prefer a specific brand, do your clients buy it and give it to you, etc? Thank you so much for your videos! They’re so informative and beautiful!
I've had a moissanite engagement ring for several years, and I'm always glad we picked it instead of a diamond. It's beautiful!
the DRAMA this stone caused in selling subset
OMG. roman and mary. i love my moissanite ring. everyone is entitled to their opinions but I assume Christine probably isn't educated on moissys~!
Oh yeah! Lol
@@dimsumgirl510 Christine just starts stuff to start it lol
That's how i even found out this existed!!!!
may I have a guide to this drama please? I like the dish.
My ring is a moissanite and we are very happy with it. My husband and I were able to get a very beautiful set that I love without spending an arm and a leg!
you are a hidden ~gem~ on youtube and i'm so glad the algorithm sent me to you
My fiancé gave me my fave cut in a moissanite. Having an asscher cut has always been my dream, and he did it so right. It’s brilliance is gorgeous, and I get so many compliments. I’m also very happy he didn’t spend a ridiculous amount of money for it.
I just got a moissanite ring for Christmas just because I loved the unique "dutch marquise" cut and the teal blue/green color of the stone so much that my husband ordered it (he was pretty happy with the price of this one.) It's just as gorgeous as my lab grown diamond wedding ring! Even with it being a colored stone, it sparkles brilliantly! I'm so lucky to have been given one!
My brother and his fiancée went shopping for a ring. A jeweler told him a story about how most people can't tell the difference at first sight and even some jewelers have trouble. That sold him on it. His fiancée wanted a sizable stone and the moissanite made it all a lot less expensive and just as beautiful.
But cheap and a fake diamond
@@jlo1423 and ethical
@@jlo1423 you must have an investment in diamonds, I agree cubic zirconia is fake and looks it but certainly not moissanite.
True. I've fooled jewellers in bright lights. It's when your in cosy, soft lights, you see it's more green blue light that bounces off. But in very bright lights, it looks like a diamond.
@@jlo1423 it's not fake. It's a gem in it's own right. Cubic zirconia is acting at fake diamond, because it's not a gem. It's glass
YES! I love Moissanite. I personally love synthetic stones (that are done well) because you have the opportunity to get the best qualities of the stones without so many drawbacks, especially the ethical concerns. Pricing and quality for price is huge, like you mention, as well.
As a person who is fortunate that I can afford any stone I want, I still LOVE and prefer moissanite for so many reasons, including just sticking it to debeers and all these evil mining corporations
Me, too. It's the sparkle
Debeers isn't the only place to sell diamonds ffs, people are so misinformed. Shop around and you can find very affordable diamonds. I should know, I own several pieces that didn't rob me blind.
@@trevorphillips3340 debeers are in control of the market value of diamonds. That's what we're getting at.
@@trevorphillips3340 Well thanks for educating us when you clearly have no knowledge of the diamond industry either. I am a collector, know the industry well and people come to me for help when buying a diamond. I have more diamonds on one hand than you have probably ever seen but I still prefer moissanite. You must be getting Jared's black friday discount and think you are up on this.
@@noriginal2546 you went from saying you don't have any stones to suddenly having many on your hand. Well that doesn't sound like a steaming pile of bs at all. any more lies you'd like to add??
Dude, I don’t know if I’m in the minority here but the rose cut and miner’s cut in antique rings was always my favorite. Always unique and beautiful 🥰
Yeessss, rose cut was always my favorite cut as well!
Emerald cut is my number one
Rose cut number two
@@itsmeGeorgina love emerald cut ! Def number 1 and then baguette cut as number 2
Rose cut is exquisite.
For some reason my favourite is simple and less sparkly emerald cut.
I love the rainbow flashes I see in my moissanite ring. It's so entrancing to watch and I think it looks way more magical than the way diamonds sparkle. ♥️💍
I have a few Moissanite rings. They are awesome - a much better price than a diamond, and they actually give off more sparkles than diamonds. Some - depending in the cut - have a ‘disco ball’ appearance. I have both a lab-grown diamond and moissanites. The diamond gives off more white sparkles and moissanites give off more rainbow colours.
I love Moissanite and can’t wait to have my wedding set made. Me and my husband had a Covid 19 wedding on 6-13-2020, after rescheduling or formal one, and I got a pink tourmaline center stone ring as it is his birthstone. I get to where a little piece of him everyday but my dream ring for our formal wedding that will take place 8-13-2022 will have a Moissanite center stone. Love the videos and can’t wait to see more!!!!
Your new wedding date is my birthday!!
When my fiance and I were talking engagement rings, I was doing research into different stones. I knew of the ethical issues behind mined diamonds but it is my birthstone and I wanted something very similar to it. Every other video comparing moissanite to diamond said that the latter had more fire -- but I very much agree that moissanite shines rainbows more than diamond!! It was the deciding factor that made me want moissanite: I thought the fire made the stone prettier
Exactly my reasoning! And diamond is my birthstone too, lmao! I could get a diamond the same size, but why would I spend more for something that isn't as pretty and probably has some bad vibes and blood in it's history... Nah fam, there is no reason to buy diamond anymore, except personal preference ofc. Anyway, you have great taste clearly!
Of course they won't! In time people will want real diamonds again and the price will sky rocket due to the demand (as minning will stop the prices will go up) you buy fake diamonds (moissanite, CS, glass) then they will be cheap because your buying a cheap stone. Its like gold rings! A plated gold ring tho it looks like gold will never be worth what a REAL solid gold ring is worth! Jewellers will tell you go for moissanite because it cost them pennies and they make hundreds/thousands from silly uneducated people.
yes a true moissanite does shine rainbows more than diamonds, unlike fake cubic zirconia.
@@jlo1423 A true moissanite is beautiful but some sellers try to pass off the fake cubic zirconia as moissanite and that is probably why you are so against lab grown diamonds and moissanite which are both very expensive to buy unlike cheap cubic zirconia lol
@@janrose7897 i would encourage you to do your research or read over my last statement again.
I use to work with Saks in their jewelry department. I’ve seen some of the world’s best, a the moissanite outshine!!! Diamonds are no longer my best friend; moissanite is my ride or die!
@@kicknitwithmom I like the idea of having two rings, I never thought of that
Fake it till you make it or someone points out that your stuff is fake lol
@@jlo1423 cubic zirconia is fake and looks it, moissanite is lab grown as are lab grown diamonds and not at all like the fake cubic zirconia. The only exception is a Swarovski zirconia which is superior to cubic zirconia.
@@janrose7897 magpies can't compare a solid gold ring to a plated one or a natural diamond to a man made lab grown diamond or moissanite. The facts are DeBeers hold these stones back to increase their value and in doing so natural stones will ALWAYS hold more value than man made ones. This goes for the actual gold in your metal and craftsmenship. Being genuine is a rarity, being copied is a compliment. Nothing like the real thing.
@@jlo1423 I am not interested in DeBeers monopoly on diamonds. The fact is the consensus seems to be deduced from replies on here, including one from a professional Geologist, that moissanite is a beautiful lab grown stone.
My wife has a one carat moissanite center stone, with a carat of natural princess stones. You cannot tell the difference. It is a beautiful alternative.
I can tell the difference, double images and the optics are vastly different.
Hi Jordan,
I am a big fan of your channel! I just wanted to thank you for introducing me to moissanite. I am currently in community college, and this video inspired me to write a discussion post about the chemical properties of moissanite and include some of the benefits you talk about. I hope some of my classmates enjoy the discussion!
My ring is gorgeous, I get compliments daily because it's big but not grossly big. And surrounded by other stones with twiting post with even more stones up the sides of the engagement ring and the wedding band. It's moissanite. It's dazzling and I adore it!! It sparkles sooooo much I love it.
Getting ready to make my first diamond piece using a .5 carat moissanite. I had no idea that it is more brilliant than real diamond, definitely will keep me coming back to this stone.
My Moissonite engagement ring is beautiful, and has great luminance. I got it in a marquise cut, which diminishes some of the fire and makes it look even more diamond like. We chose it because Moissonite is conflict free ❤️ plus it’s super budget friendly!
I would absolutely love a 1.5 Ca "crushed ice", "princess" 90° turned moissanite with 3 little accompanied stones on each side 😍
I love rose cut too! When I was in silver smithing school, I would buy up all of the rose cut stones that I could find at my gem store. Now I order direct from India. I can't believe the difference. Have a great year ♥
My girlfriend told me about moissanite. She said when I pop the question get moissanite instead of a diamond because we can put all that razzle dazzle money that a diamond would cost into something for sensible that could benefit us as a couple. When she said that I fell in love even more. She's absolutely gorgeous and not too many women nowadays would say that. And to see this video really made me feel a lot better about it. I'm eyeing a 2 carat one set in platinum that's right under 3k
I have a moissanite engagement ring as well (and small diamonds on my wedding band), and it was a much cheaper alternative than a diamond ring. You can't tell the difference between the moissante and diamonds, and no one can tell either. It's so sparkly and I absolutely love it!!
I can easily tell - the sparkle and clarity is a dead giveaway to my eye.
Yes everyone can tell the difference lol
@@anniemaymcneely2013 Not everyone ... I've had jewellers not notice multiple times.
@@anniemaymcneely2013 no they can’t
My engagement ring is moissanite! It’s sooooo sparkly & beautiful. Was also significantly cheaper than diamond. I also love that it originates from meteors! Highly underrated gem.
I love mine! Especially how the way it refracts light brings a more rainbow effect!
Though I did have an odd experience... after hearing about moissanite from the jeweler we ended up getting the ring custom made from, we went to another just to double check our options. When we asked this one (a national chain) about using moissanite, they said “we don’t do that because it yellows if left in a hot car”. Like... why would I leave a ring worth so much money in a hot car? Like ever? They recommended white sapphire, which looked so dull compared to what we ended up with. So glad to have my moissanite ring!!!
Just bought a moissanite! Totally amazed by the sparkle and fire! Gorgeous ring
Just got a 10 carat moissanite ring and I am absolutely in love. Thank you for making such informative helpful videos and educating the public! Love your channel!
Dang that’s huge
Thank you for your down to earth, snob free, real expertise. I have several simple pieces of Moissanite my favorite being my 1.5ct solitaire pendant. I never take it off unless to clean. After 5 years it still looks brilliant and amazing. When or if I should get engaged I already have a 3ct cushion cut in mind that I have been in love with. And if the BF doesn't pop the ? I'll get it for myself 😁
I absolutely love my moissanite ring. Yeah, diamonds are pretty, but the cost is insane. Biggest racket in the world.
Not to mention they're 100% conflict free 🥰 and way better for the environment!
Can you do a comparison video between Moissanite and Morganite?
Umm. Totally totally different.
I love my moissanite! My fiancé got me a 1.5 oval solitaire for under $500 and was appraised well over that! When I saw a moissanite next to a diamond in person I knew I wanted all of that brilliance
1,5 carat is a decent size engagement ring 🙂
You need a promo code. I was just talking to my bf about needing new earrings so I’m sending him a link to moissanite. Personally don’t care about diamonds specifically; but I love a white sparky stone so this is perfect for me.
I absolutely love my Moissanite ring. I was so happy to find this alternative to diamonds.
Strontium Titanate also has insane fire to it.
It's very soft though, like glass basically.
@@Mobin92 yeah it's only a 5 on Moh's scale. You definitely wouldn't want to wear it everyday.
Yes!! I got a 3.5 carat moissanite and we can afford a large down payment on our first home! So exciting!
You got my comment with that terrible pun. I have a moisson-right engagement ring and I love that it sparkles rainbows. XD
Great video! I would love to see a similar video about sapphires or even about the different types of settings, metals, etc. It's overwhelming to try to find the "right" ring/materials but your video lays out the facts in a fun and entertaining way. Thanks for making!
I subbed as soon as he hit me with that "MOISSA-RIGHT" pun 🤣
You're doing great, love to watch your videos, it's very imformative
Unfortunately I can tell the difference between a moissanite and diamond. It reminds me of a sparkly CZ… so it wasn’t an option for me. Still got my house and two post graduate degrees after that. Thankfully our jobs pay well, I have my own practice in addition and my guy is really good at accounting and saving ! 👌🏾
Loves your videos my dude, keep up the great work!
Thanks bunches! Will do!
I love my blue Moissanite ring. It's absolutely perfect.
You are absolutely 110%.... CORRECT!..... Very good points made!!!It's about the " intrinsic value" or " sentimental value!"... More bling on the ring!!!!
I love the way you talk!!! It’s like an ASMR video for me 😂
Same - soothing AND educating all at once 😁
He has a great warm relatable personality that is very UA-cam friendly without being obnoxious. That, coupled with a genuine love for his craft and some great production value of his videos, makes for a true gem (haha) of a channel. I'm glad the mighty algorithm gods looked his way favorably.
I bought a moissanite ring a while ago and it sparkles in the most beautiful way. The only trouble is that it’s set in sterling silver with an open (i.e. adjustable) ring design, so people would know it’s a cheaper alternative when they spot that. Perhaps I should’ve asked for a custom made ring that’s my size instead.
My Moissy Bridal set is absolutely stunning!! I have several diamond rings but they are dull in comparison. And not to mention the horrible things done to dig them up. Why would anyone want a diamond over a Moissanite is beyond me! Mine has so much depth and brilliance!! Just gorgeous! Never touching a diamond again!
My beautiful moissanite ring fell into the lake at our cottage when I had an accent with the dock. I usually take it off to go swimming and I forgot to. I had it 7 years and it cost us very little at the time. No one had ever heard of it. But when the jeweler showed us the papers of authentication and we saw that it was basically star dust, we were sold. It was just under $700 CAD at the time for 1CT, simple round cut. Now, jewelers near us and even online are asking $1,500 or more. Even the place we bought it from, who still had us on record, quoted us $2,000 CAD due to popularity. So almost 3 years later and I'm sill engagement ring-less because the price sky rocketed. Our 10 year wedding anniversary is August 2022 and I'm trying to find a reasonable place that sell this stone. Either way, BEST STONE EVER!
❤️ thank you so very much for your opinion!
Agreed, as a retired Kindergarten Teacher . Money is a considerable factor!
Non conflict is what it's all about !
I , personally, do not want any part of the process of obtaining diamonds for marketing sells
Thanks 🙏 Man You just taught me a lot about Moissanite.

I just ordered a Moissanite ring this morning. Can’t wait to wear it.
I LOVE my antique style ring with moissanite cushion. It holds up to everything! And is just as brilliant 7 years later as day one! BEST choice for sure!
This makes me want a moissanite ring even more!
OMG I LOVE YOU! RIGHT TO THE POINT, NO BS! SIMPLE, HONEST, DEADLY!!!
Rose cut is my favourite too! I'd love to see more of it.
My bf just proposed to me on Christmas and got me the ring i really wanted and it was moissanite radiant cut, super stunning!! I divorcedy ex-husband about 7years ago and he got me a diamond ring but it wasnt as shiny as i wanted the to be, also because it was a cheaper option. Im so glad i get to research a better alternative on rings because i know for a fact that my partner doesnt have to suffer to buy me an expensive 3carat diamond, instead got me a reasonable price of 3carat size ring! Now we are engaged and saving our money to get a house!!
This is all new to me and I love it.❤❤
I love my moissanite ring!! I think it’s better than diamond in every single respect- one other thing I love about moissanite that you didn’t mention is that moissanite reflects in rainbow colors whereas diamond reflects only white
That's not correct...but it depends what you mean by "reflect".
I don't think there's any other reason than it's cheaper. I'd say go with a sapphire as sapphire comes in all colors of the rainbow and its price depending on its rarity can rival a diamond easily. And it's utterly beautiful.
Love my moissanite it’s Gorgeous! I have a few diamonds but none so Lovely as my Moissy!
I would love to see you do a comparison of clear sapphires and moissanite!
If clarity, weight, cut and size are the same, you'll get brilliance from a sapphire but you will get more refraction (colours in the flash) from a moissanite. You can buy both synthesized sapphires and moissanites but only naturally-formed jewellery grade sapphires. There are other gems that give you more "fire" than a moissanite but either they are not suitable for every day wear or should never be set into a ring.
Thank for this video. I do enjoy your videos because they are so informative. I want a new eternity band to celebrate my 30th. I am thinking about moissanite because I want the fire but not the size because I can't wear big things. I think you have convinced me to get that.🤣🧡
Sapphires tho
(Then again i am a sucker for pretty colours)
You can get those lab-grown, too, and get other lab-grown stones in different colors to resemble other stones =)
moissanites can be bought in colors too.
Thanks for this great review! Very informative!
No problem! Glad you enjoyed
This is such a great video, thank you! Informative and engaging :)
I’ve been married for 2 years now and I’ve never known about moissanite’s, until recently. My dear husband did gift me a lovely diamond ring, but if I had known about this, I might have considered it ☺️
My engagement ring is an Victorian /Edwardian trilogy with 1 carrat rose cut and half card at rose cut diamonds illusion set in platinum with 18carrat yellow gold band. You only need one look to recognise its antique it was made in time frame 1880s
I love it it's been on my finger 51years yes husband has bought me several upgrades ( all ruby and diamond designs) but I just love the simplicity of this ring
Absolutely love my pear crushed ice Moissanite! It’s set in halo of Moissanites on a simple thin platinum band
They're such a beautiful stone. I like the way they look more than a diamond. And I'm cheap, and honestly I wouldn't wear an expensive ring, I'd be scared to lose it or damage it. I found a beautiful 14k gold moissanite ring under 900 bucks that we love.
I just found your channel and I love your style and take on fine jewelry.
