My fiancé hated the fact that I wanted a moissanite engagement ring at first (because it is ethical, beautiful, and sooo worth it) since he didn’t know what it was. He thought it was worse than diamond until I showed him a bunch of videos about how amazing it is. He finally accepted it and got me a beautiful engagement ring. Now, whenever we show our ring to our friends, he can’t stop telling people about moissanite and how much better it is than diamond hahah
An Nguyen that is awesome. Most of the time people end up buying diamonds because they think they are the best just because of what isn’t told
Yea I did my research and bought a beautiful 1 ct moissanite engagement ring for my fiance! Never going back to diamond.
You’re dumb, I totally would have let him buy me a diamond.
Same 😂
Moissanites > any gem. Beautiful, ethical and strong.
I brought a moissanite to a jeweller for mounting in a ring. He had to ask me, "is it a moissanite or a diamond"?... There is really nothing more to say.
Now they must have a registration number on them.So no tricking jewellers
The whole diamond thing is really a successful Oppenheimer scam. Oppenheimer's De Beers cornered the market, killed the competition, and presented diamonds as something "rare." Strangely, the Jewish Oppenheimer's even denied the U.S. industrial diamonds needed to fight the Nazis in fear that having so many diamonds out of their control could lower the price in the future (while, at the same time, refusing to close a profitable mine that they KNEW was leaking diamonds to Hitler). Check out the "Diamond Empire" from PBS ua-cam.com/video/Pr760mRwek4/v-deo.html In short: BUY MOISSANITE!
It's pretty sad most fine jewelers won't touch a moissanite or lab diamond. Such a shame
@@JMac-27 The tide is turning. Within 10 years most jewelers will have to deal with man made diamonds and moissanites or else they will slowly go out of business.
@@Landstalker1999 Yes, choosing between flawless moisanites or lab diamonds at a cheaper price.... Vs included and flawed mined diamonds.
I was a woman who absolutely LOVED diamonds!! Then I saw moissanite!!! For my 25th wedding anniversary my husband bought me a beautiful 2 1/2 carat diamond.... I CRIED...nope, not because it was so beautiful. It was because that wonderful man saved and worked so hard to buy me this beautiful $23,000.00 ring and it wasnt nearly as beautiful as a moissanite. Ladies if you have never seen a moissanite ring you must find one that you can see up close. Absolutely gorgeous. I love jewlery and each piece I have I didnt buy because it was expensive. I bought them all because I thought they were beautiful. Trust me when I say you will be complimented over and over no matter what the piece is as long as theres moissanite involved.
Linda Gould thank you for your kind words, Linda!! We are so happy to hear you’re happy with the brilliance of moissanite and your special pieces! Thank you for being a fan! 😍🎉💜
Charles & Colvard 23k i hope it was a good quality gem lol
I found ti's jewel in Bangkok n immediately bought it and hve it set at my regular jeweller... Heaven
READ THIS❗✨
Goodbye blood diamonds
Welcome Moist
Outstanding Presentation! Thank you for making and sharing this.
Why anyone would buy a diamond is beyond me.
I completely agree!
Because of the name and its mainly woman. We also know woman dont have logical reasoning cababilities.
To brag lol
Solitaire diamonds keep their value, moissanite have terrible resale value
Hi @@adeni8144, thank you for visiting our page. Moissanite is a valued gemstone and recognized as such by the American Gem Society (AGS) alongside its peers such as Ruby, Sapphire, and Diamond. Because of its superior fire, brilliance, and hardness, we offer a limited lifetime warranty on our moissanite gemstones. Its optical properties will never change or fade, and in keeping, we believe it will retain its value for a lifetime. One way for you to validate this is to look at the aftermarket for moissanite on digital marketplaces. There, you may find individuals selling their moissanite gemstones and jewelry. If you search for a gemstone of comparable quality and size, it should provide you with a sense for its value retention.
Wearing an 8.9ct moissanite ring right now. This has got to be the best jewelry purchase I've ever made, the fire is ridiculously blinding.
Love Love Moissanites, my husband got me a lovely stone while I was recuperating from an operation. So I sat there staring and healing at the same time. The prism lights that fly outa that sucker are uncroyable !!
I just bought a moissanite engagement ring for my girlfriend, a woman who demands a diamond ring. She says she doesn't like moissanite but she's never seen it. Hope she likes it when I propose next month
Hi Patrick, we are confident she will love it! 😍 We also offer free 60-day returns on most orders if for some reason you decided to go with another style or product after purchasing: candc.shop/Returns - we hope this helps!
How did it go
Well, don't leave us hanging.
come on bruh how did it go???
Judging from silence, she didn't like it. Tough break man.
Charles & Colvard HAD the patent, but now anyone can make them. They were to Moissanite what Debeers are to Diamonds. But not anymore. So don't miss out in savings and research other sellers!
Which ones? ❤
I love my moissanite wedding set, it's BLINDING!
Like Thugnificent's watch blinding
I'm going to get me a moissanite, too
Brilliant video mate, absolutely beautiful
Moissanite lights up the Night
I just got mine today. Love it!
So happy to hear that, Orpha! Enjoy your brilliant piece!!
if it wasn't for my wife doing research on Moissanite, I would of spent close to 25k or more for the ring she wanted... i spent a fraction of the price with the platinum band for a better ring that shines brighter and is nearly as strong as a diamond... I promise you, its worth the savings and she still looks at her 3.2 crt ring EVERYDAY... she gets compliments on it everywhere she's goes.
I want this for my engagement ring (hopefully soon). it gives you so many options. You can go big with no compromise on your pockets!. I am surprised this video hasn't blown up!
I just got mine - it's gorgeous! Absolutely no regrets, I love it more every day!
beautiful
I am replacing my 15yr old diamond wedding ring with a bigger moissanite ring. Not because we can't afford a big diamond, but because I much prefer moissanite. I hate it when people say they look just like diamonds because they are so much more beautiful than diamonds could ever be! Their lower price and eco friendliness are just extra perks.
I love all my moissanite rings and i own Diamonds and love the moissanite better love the rainbow effect and the sparkle cant be beat :)
What on earth is the light they use at 1:26 to get that refraction effect?
I am from Indonesia...
I like Moissanite verry much...
Like it.The moissanite jewelry have fashion design with sparkle moissantie.Oh my god!! I can't help to buy it.We are same with Charles colvard : )
How much do they cost
I just bought a moissonite on ebay,and a setting on etsy. In a month or so when they both arrive I will hopefully join the two.
Took me about an hour of careful fiddling to get it how I wanted,but really pleased with it! Looks like I spent hundreds on it.
I was never a fan of moissanite until i came through it! I was super obsessive with diamonds. But now I'm Loving Moissanite more! I want to purchase a moissanite jewellery. I would like to know if you sell Natural moissanite or lab created ones?
Hello, Namrata! Thank you for reaching out. We're so excited to hear that you are a fan of moissanite! While moissanite is a naturally occurring gemstone, it is not found in large enough quantities to be used in jewelry. Charles & Colvard creates beautiful, lab-created moissanite gemstones through a proprietary and patented thermal growing process.
I really want one of these some day! They are amazing and beautiful!
Thank you! We think so too :) You can browse all Charles & Colvard moissanite jewelry at charlesandcolvard.com!
Charles & Colvard I don’t understand why your loose moissanite stones cost more than moissanite stones I have found online from other jewelry companies. Because my understanding was that Charles and Colvard are the only ones who are producing moissanite, so any jewelry company selling moissanite stones have come from you. So how can they be selling them for less than you?
I bought mine on aliexpress. It's stunning and has papers and passed the test. Cost way less than these lot
Stephanie Melendez Thank you for that tip! I’ll check it out!
@@cw5451 Basically, Charles & Colvard HAD the patent, but now anyone can create Moissanites.. so nowadays, it's like buying a debeers diamond. You pay for the name
what is the meaning of gem??
Assalamu alaikum...
Moissanite was verry beautifull...
Why did Moissanite have no certificate...?
I love my moissanite ring but the only thing is that over time, some sort of film starts to build up on the stone and it’s super hard to remove. I’ve tried all sorts if methods out there but I can’t seem to remove it. I heard that Charles and Corvard gives away a cleaning cloth for that but is it really helpful? I’ve tried jewellery cleaning cloth but it didn’t remove it.
Lol should've got the real thing. NEVER try to go the cheap route because you'll ALWAYS find out why its cheaper lol
Dishwashing soap in a cup with water and a very soft toothbrush should get it sparking - works on diamonds too
I use gold/silver cleaning wipes. Works wonders!
Chemical properties: 👇🏼
Diamond : Carbon
Moissanite : silicon Carbide
Cubic Zirconia : Zirconium Oxide
Dioxide..Not oxide
I am with you! Imho, moissanite is the superior gem. Lab created diamond is second. I don't need to tell you how bad I feel for the people that are working in the mined diamond industry who are SOL.
And as for the rich aristocrats that run the mined diamond industry your days are numbered.
Moissanite for Steven Universe
Moissanite is a one-carat ring, how much is appropriate? I feel that many items are sold at a high price.
10$ to 20$ on Chinese site for that size
So it looks better than diamond and affordable? Easy choice for me.
Moissanite is a gorgeous lab created stone, no doubt about it. If you want something that is more fiery and sparkly than a diamond, and want to not contribute to the damage mining for diamonds creates or contribute to slavery used to mine diamonds, buy a Moissanite. If you still want a diamond, then buy a lab grown diamond.
Moissanite sounds SiC
Please look up the difference between toughness and hardness
moissanite is tougher, diamond is harder
Best vid. Others suck
I love moissanite. I prefer it over diamonds
Wow, there is a world of difference between this video and Charles & Colvard's video from 2008 (ua-cam.com/video/kuxYtWys-Hc/v-deo.html).
My hubby just bought me mine 🥰 me we again diamonds
So moissanite is lab created all the time?
yes. It is extremely rare in the earth's crust where as diamonds are extremely common. Meteorite Moissanite would cost you around 18 million per carat.

Im sorry but silicon carbide was first artificially made several years before the natural form was discovered. You are simply incorrect.
correct
I wish you guy has better bands.
*Grade A Under A?*
Hello! We offer two grades of our premium Forever One moissanite. Charles & Colvard Forever One™ D-E-F is our much-desired colorless grade of moissanite formed from uniquely structured silicon carbide that produces the most brilliant gemstones on the market. It eliminates the artificial distinctions between value and beauty and offers socially responsible fine jewelry to the consumer who is thinking beyond traditional choices.
Charles & Colvard Forever One™ G-H-I is our second grade of Forever One. Cut from our high-quality material and possessing the same optical properties as our D-E-F gemstone, G-H-I is a near-colorless gemstone with a slight icy hue. It’s cool-toned body color gives it a unique look that differentiates it from other gemstones on the market today. No matter what Forever One grade you choose, your stone will be more brilliant than any other.
AND NO NEED FOR SLAVE LABOR!
Rather buy Solitaire diamonds it keeps their value, moissanite have terrible resale value
You act like diamonds do... what a joke lol
Nathan Freeman it does off course im not talking about sprinkles diamonds Im talking about big stones u are really dumb if u don't know that lmao
Aden I then go sell them back for the same amount bought for. Can almost guarantee you won’t get the same money back.
Nathan Freeman i already does Im a jeweler and I sold a 5 ct emerald cut diamond for 2 times the price I paid
Aden I haha ok 😂 whatever you say, but I’m not dumb and brainwashed into thinking diamonds are actually an investment. Lol.
36 times + more expensive than pure gold that is a lot of $$$ for a lab-grown silicon carbide crystal glass.
How exactly are you making that comparison? Again if you actually paid attention, it’s not glass.
synthetic trash
Mondoduke it’s not synthetic, it’s a naturally occurring gemstone.
Brenna Bernardin it's a syntheticmy created gem natural ones are extremely rare
It is synthetic, lab-created. It is real, but IT IS a man-made gem.
^ Sour grapes.
Are you talking about my butthole? I paid good money for that thing
