Answer: Moissanites are typically VS1 in clarity when using the diamond grading system as a benchmark.

Answer: Moissanites are “H to J” in colour which is similar to many diamonds which also fall into this range of colour. It is still considered as a white colour, however not as white-white like other synthetic diamond such as Cubic Zirconia which is less believable since white-white colour diamonds are extremely rare.

Using a 10x loupe, each individual jewel is examined for inclusions that may affect the optical performance of the jewel.

Answer: Moissanite jewels are lab created Silicon Carbide material and has very close physical properties to diamond.

In some cases yes, and some no. The cutting for any given shape of moissanite is done in slightly different proportions than those for a diamond. Each Moissanite jewel is hand cut to specifications that maximize the appearance and beauty of Moissanite. This special hand-cut faceting gives each Moissanite jewel an unbelievable brilliance and fire. The color of Moissanite compares to diamonds of I-J color.

Answer: Moissanite will require only simple care just like any other jewels. You would care for Moissanite just the way you would care for diamond.

Answer: Moissanite is sold by stone millimeters (mm) and/or diamond equivalent weight and not by its weight. The same size of Moissanite stones as compared to diamond by weight, weighs approximately 13% less than diamond.

Answer: Under extreme temperature, Moissanite has more heat resistance than diamond. Just like diamond jewellery, Moissanite jewellery can be cast in place and will not be prone to any heat damage when the jewellery is being repaired or re-sized.

Answer: Particles of the material were originally discovered by Dr. Henri Moissan during his work at an ancient meteorite crash in the Diablo Canyon in Arizona in 1893. This meteorite crash happened approximately 50,000 thousand years ago. This amazing brilliant and diamond-like material discovered by Dr. Moissan was from the fragments of the meteorite. It was named “Moissanite” in honour of Dr. Moissan in 1905.

Moissanite pronounced as (MOY- San- ite)) is a relatively new jewel in the market. Moissanite has achieved outstanding Popularity since its inception commercially in the Year 1998.Moissanite, also known as silicon carbide, is a naturally occurring mineral found in limited quantities or as small particles in the earth. The rarity of large natural Moissanite crystals prohibits their use in jewelry making. For years, scientists tried in vain to re-create this extraordinarily brilliant material.

Created by nature, most diamonds contain unique birthmarks called "inclusions" (internal) and "blemishes" (external). Diamonds with few birthmarks are rare -and rarity affects value.

Answer: Moissanite has very close characteristics to diamond. The refractive index or brilliance of Moissanite is 2.65 as compared to 2.42 for diamond. The dispersion or fire of Moissanite is 0.104 as compared to 0.044 for diamond. Moissanite is the second hardest jewel after diamond with a hardness rating of 9.25 as compared to 10 for diamond.

Answer: Yes. It is quite difficult to tell the two apart especially when both have very similar properties. Even many professional jewelers find it hard to distinguish the two. Answer: Yes, most definitely. As seen on 20/20, Moissanite is the only other jewel that will test “positive” as a diamond when tested using a standard diamond tester.

Answer: Moissanite will last forever just like diamond. Unlike other diamond simulants, Moissanite will never fade, cloud or change colour over time. All Moissanite jewels come with Charles & Colvard Certificate of Authenticity and Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Some diamonds with surface reaching factures are filled with a glass-like compound to make them look better. Like cosmetics, this process merely improves the appearance of the diamond compared to what it would look like without the treatment; it doesn't improve the clarity of the diamond. It's a legitimate process but jewelers are required by law to disclose whether a particular diamond has been treated.

Answer: After surgery, you will soon learn how much you can take in and what foods you can tolerate. It is difficult to say what foods will agree with you and which ones won't since everyone is different but fried foods, sweet food and drinks, and food with tough fiber such as orange pulp should be avoided. You will have the ability to eat a meal much like a child's portion. This will be the amount you eat indefinitely, unless your stomach is stretched by not following post-operative guidelines.

Primitive Baptists cannot consent with those who compromise scriptural commandments in order to gain social acceptance. We deny the claim that terms of truth and morality are to be guided by the ever changing winds of social values (Eph 4:14). Instead, these are defined by our ever constant Lord, and are revealed in His inspired word (Mal 3:6, Lk 21:33, Heb 13:8, I Pet 1:24-25).
