MOISSANITE: MOISSANITE

MOISSANITE

Moissanite created by Charles & Colvard is an incredible near-colorless jewel with nearly 21⁄2 times more fire than diamond and it delivers quality, beauty and value like no other gemstone.

Discovered by French Nobel Prize-winner, Dr. Henri Moissan, Moissanite can trace its origins to particles derived from meteors fallen from space.

Moissanite, also known as silicon carbide, is a naturally occurring mineral found in limited quantities.

For years, scientists tried in vain to recreate this rare and extraordinarily brilliant material. Only recently, through the power of advanced technology at the house of Charles & Colvard, is this gift from the stars available.

The visual characteristics of Charles & Colvard created Moissanite make it a unique jewelry category. High dispersion (“fire”) and refractive index (“brilliance”) give Moissanite more dazzling sparkle than any other gem, including diamond, yet it’s priced at only a fraction of the cost.

Moissanite is extraordinarily heat resistant. Tests prove that at 2000°F Moissanite remains intact and as brilliant as the day it was created. Second in hardness only to diamond, Moissanite is also durable and tough. It is extremely resistant to scratching, abrasion, breaking and chipping.

Charles & Colvard created Moissanite comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty that it will never change color, fade or lose its beauty for the lifetime of the owner. Plus, every gorgeous jewel comes with a Charles & Colvard Certificate of Authenticity.

Charles & Colvard created Moissanite offers the value and quality today’s women demand – in the big, bold looks they crave. By delivering maximum beauty at minimum cost, without the emotional and traditional associations of diamond, women feel comfortable choosing Moissanite as the perfect reward for important personal and professional achievements. The undeniably potent combination of quality plus value makes Moissanite the definitive choice in affordable luxury.
