Moissanite
diamonds are taking the gem world by storm.
Diamond specialists pride themselves on offering
the best to their customers, selling diamonds that
shine brilliantly and beautifully, not only
because of the professional reputation they have
worked so hard to foster, but also because they
respect and admire the medium with which they
work.
So it might come as something of a surprise that
many professional gemmologists are now selling
simulated diamonds alongside the ‘real thing’.
Have they somehow compromised their principles? Or
is it just that moissanite diamonds are simply
that beautiful?
Simulated diamonds have long been held in
disfavor, because of the assumption that
simulation necessarily implies inferiority. This
has caused moissanite diamonds to be greeted
sceptically, and with no lack of foundation.
Previously produced simulated diamonds have
included such alternatives as cut glass,
rhinestone and cubic zirconium, which might lay
claim to a certain attractiveness in their own
right, but in no way approaching the sublime
beauty of a real diamond.
But the development of moissanite diamonds has
shaken this old foundation to the core. Those who
have yet to be awed by the physical presence of
moissanite diamonds dismiss them prematurely as
being manmade, unlike real diamonds, which Mother
Earth has brewed in her belly for millennia. But
this harsh dismissal is to ignore the many wonders
that man has created throughout his evolution,
from art and poetry to the scientific wonders that
can save lives.
Many of man’s finest creations have been born in
the lab, and moissanite diamonds are no exception.
Even professional gemmologists have been able to
distinguish them from real diamonds, and many of
those who have deem their brilliance and fire
superior to that of a real diamond.
Simulated diamonds were previously only the domain
of those who were unable to afford the real thing,
but now moissanite diamonds can offer, and even
surpass, the beauty of a real diamond at a far
lower price. Even the experts are impressed –
and you will be too.
Moissanite diamonds offer the beauty and fire of
diamonds, but without the price tag.
