No, first of all, I need to deny at the very beginning that moissanite is not diamond; they are two different materials.
Their properties, production methods, specific gravity, hardness, refractive index, composition, price, electrical conductivity and polishing texture are all different.
The diamonds we see usually go through a series of processing procedures such as mining, cutting and polishing. The processing of moissanite is a bit simpler. Generally, as long as there are professional tools, it can be made in just a few days.
The specific gravity of natural diamond is 3.52, and that of moissanite is 3.22. The hardness of diamond is 10, while that of moissanite is 9.25. In Porsche, its hardness is second only to that of diamond, with little difference. It does not affect daily wear.
The refractive index of moissanite is 2.65-2.69. Moissanite has birefringence, while diamond only has unirefringence. Its refractive index is lower than that of moissanite, and its fire is not as good as that of moissanite. Under natural light, moissanite has rich fire colors such as blue, yellowish green and yellow. Diamonds mainly come in two colors: blue and orange.
Moissanite is an artificially synthesized product, with silicon carbide as its main component. Diamonds are purely natural and one of the five major organic gemstones. Their main component is carbon, and the carbon content is as high as over 96%.
To sum up, diamond and moissanite are two different materials. However, due to its birefringence feature, moissanite has a more rich and dazzling color.
Usually, the products we sell include moissanite chains, moissanite bracelets, moissanite pendants, moissanite rings, etc. This has brought convenience to many consumers who do not have a large budget.
