WHAT IS A MOISSANITE?

Moissanite is a rare, naturally occurring mineral also known as silicon carbide. Named after Nobel Prize-winning chemist Dr. Henri Moissan, Moissanite was first discovered in 1893 at the site of a massive meteorite strike in Arizona. Scientists in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina later developed the thermal growing process that creates silicon carbide crystals, which are fashioned into Moissanite gemstones.



NATURAL MOISSANITE?

Natural Moissanite is incredibly rare, so Moissanite available today is mostly laboratory-created. After many years of trial and error, the particles Moissanite discovered were successfully synthesized to produce what is now one of the world’s most scintillating gemstones. Moissanite has a greater refractive index and therefore contains more fire and brilliance - the internal play of light inside the gem – than diamonds. Moissanites are engineered to give the illusion of similarity to diamonds, but are compositionally and visually quite different from a real diamond. The durability, brilliance, and color of the two gems are quite distinct. 



WHY MOISSANITE?

Moissanite is Environmentally and Socially Responsible stone. Moissanites are lab-grown stones. There is no mining involved in the creation process, so Moissanites are not harmful to the earth, and are not involved in any conflict trade. In order to meet our promise of excellence, we offer - Forever One Moissanite by Charles and Colvard. The Forever One was introduced as the first colorless Moissanite created gemstone in September  2015. Forever One is the epitome of lab-created Moissanite, and it’s helping change the way the industry thinks about environmental responsibility, and the way buyers think about fine jewelry. The beauty and premium quality of the Forever One gems, paired with Charles & Colvard ethical principals, makes Forever One Moissanite a superior, sustainable and conflict-free gemstone. Moissanite is a 9.25 on the Moh’s scale, making it a very durable stone, suitable for everyday wear. Moissanite is Second to Diamond in Terms of Hardness. 



What is the quality and origin of the Moissanite Bashert Jewelry is offering?

Forever One is the culmination of two centuries of research and two decades of continuous innovation and is now available in two color grades: colorless (D-E-F) and near-colorless (G-H-I)*.
