When searching for the perfect engagement ring, two incredible options stand out: moissanite engagement rings and lab created diamonds. At Aura Diamonds, we proudly offer both — but which is right for you?
What is Moissanite?
Originally discovered in a meteor crater, moissanite is a gemstone known for its fiery brilliance and exceptional hardness. Often compared to diamonds, moissanite jewelry is a luxury yet affordable engagement ring choice.
Moissanite vs Lab Diamond: Key Differences
-
Brilliance: Moissanite sparkle is unmatched, often displaying a rainbow effect under light, while lab diamonds offer classic, white brilliance.
-
Hardness: On the gemstone hardness scale, moissanite ranks 9.25/10, while diamonds rank 10/10.
-
Price: Moissanite cost is generally lower, offering a larger look for less.
Which One Is Better for Engagement Rings?
If you're seeking maximum brilliance and affordability, moissanite rings are a fabulous choice. If you prefer a more traditional diamond appearance with superior hardness, lab diamond quality wins.
