    I can’t disagree with anything you said. Very true about natural Diamond. It’s abundant but heavily marketed by you know who, and supply is controlled. I own a few Moissanites and they are beautiful. I also have some natural Silicone Carbide in my collection which is amazing, it just looks like it’s rolled in glitter. Thank you for taking you time and effort producing this video. 👍💯💫

    Thanks for your commentary. Everything you uttered is indeed valid. I've collected several moissanite pieces over the years. Yet, I confess that it is not what I reach for first when I want to dress to the nines.
    We must get it through our thick skulls not to compare the two, as they are different. I also hear jewellers constantly making a comparison to highlight the affordability of Moissanite and thus generate more sales. In so doing, I think they denigrate the value of Moissanite because they make it seem like a less expensive substitute! Because of constantly being subjected to such an ideology, I feel as if I'm compromising or 'settling' when I wear my Moissanite. Your pep talk will help me work harder to think otherwise.
    May I please offer a humble suggestion regarding your monologue? Attempt to avoid "word whiskers" like: Actually. Your must have said it at least 25 to 30 times. It became distracting, especially when it was thrown in at random...similar to the way some over season food by continuing to add salt or sugar.
    Again, may thanks for your dissertation.

    I bet the price of moissanite will sky rocket in the next ten years maybe even surpass diamond because of the rarity of it in nature. And its fire nd brilliance. Moissanite is the only gem that passes as a diamond on a detector. I got a tennis chain made of moissanite for 5 grand oppose to a diamond tennis chain that is 50,000 and nobody can tell it apart from a real diamond chain. Without taking it to a jeweler. Very hard to tell the difference to the untrained eye. And they test possitive as a diamond on most diamond testers. But 5 grand for a chain is still not cheap. But it beats 50,000 any day of the week. So moissanite is not that cheap. But way less expensive as a diamond. Ur basically paying double just to say its diamond. But yet moissanite passes diamond testers lol diamond is going to loose value wen more people discover moissanite

    • @JMac-27
      @JMac-27 3 роки тому +2

      There are now moissanite detectors and they don't pass as diamonds. Lab diamond will pass but moissanite is not rare because it's strictly made in labs. Moissanite found from meteors was too small to be made into jewelry pieces so it's strictly man made so it cannot be considered rare. Lab diamond however is already ridiculous in price as the cost for diamonds has been sourcing and rarity. Lab diamonds aren't difficult to source or rare so no moissanite will never take diamonds place

      J Mac Are you still spreading this old wive’s tale? Everyone knows that the price of diamonds was set by limited players having complete market domination, hoarding, and price fixing. Since the DeBeers class action lawsuit and the disruptive entrance of Alrosa, and the new mining in Australia and Canada prices dropped dramatically.

      You do realize that what your calling “moissionite” is actually Artificial silicon carbide, and that you overpaid by thousands for your tennis bracelet.

    Also u can get certified moissanite jus like diamond. They class them the same way. Trust a clarity D vvs1 is better nd more beautiful than any low scale S1 or S2 diamond. So why waste money on a diamond unless it flawless 1 or 2 or vvs1 or 2. A moissanite VVS1 will shit on any low grade diamond. Also not many people but the very wealthy can afford a flawless 1 or 2 diamond or even vvs1 or 2. Ur talking 100 of thousands of dollars for the cut color carit nd clarity of that of a real diamond. Go moissanite because it has more reflective light more beautiful fire nd half the price. And they are a real gemstone!!!

      Exactly I’m about to put $400 on some 9mm VVS1 D-E-F color moissanites for my girlfriend and I researched the price of a real lab made diamond VS quality J-K color for 90,000 !!! Not even D-E-F color or VVS clarity and it’s STILL almost 100,000$ imagine if it was 😐 lol like who in the hell is about to pay 90k to 150k for some damn earrings 😂

      @JMac-27 3 роки тому

      Except have you seen moissanite certificates, you cannot trust those labs. hell there's only a couple gem labs you can trust grading accuracy for diamonds. There is no way moissanite should ever have a grading of good or even very good, so if charles and Colvard forever one stones are getting graded good on cut there's a damn problem and people are buying a pricey little gemstone with imperfections that shouldn't cost what they are charging. Moissanite at these prices should be excellent across the board but it's not

      @@JMac-27 yes boss they sure do and there’s other grading scales and companies, before they never used to grade moissanite gem stones but not too long ago they started due to the high demand for high quality perpetual stones so they needed a professional grading system like the “GRA” which is like the GIA but like I said previously just specifically for Moissanites other gem stones like emeralds, Rubies, and etc..get graded a little differently because it’s not like Mos’s (Moissanites) which is obviously made to be a more brilliant stone than diamond so they (GRA and other grading systems) wanted to at least hire professionals to grade those to make the customers understand that Mos is pure quality and there’s different levels to it that most crappy one is greyish, brown, or yellow looking Moissanites that VS orVVS Clarity is AMAZING especially in DEF -GHI color ... I just bought my girl some MOs jewelry and she feel in love with it and in one day wear to the mall people kept asking her crazy questions like “what kinds of job do you have that quality is crazy” “how much was that Diamond 💎 ” when In reality it’s just a mos - Moissanite so I now see it’s worth it ... I might have to buy me something now lol

    I like moissanite simply because it shines brighter than a diamond. It cost less than a diamond. It looks better than a diamond and moissanite is the shiniest stone in the world and diamonds are overrated and overpriced.
