The Benefits of Men's Moissanite Wedding Rings

Moissanite is a synthetic mineral, also known as silicon carbide, which is used to simulate diamonds. It is becoming quite popular as a diamond substitute because it has a refraction similar to that of a diamond. Further, it is nearly as hard as a diamond and just as thermally conductive, unlike other replicas.

This unique mineral was discovered in 1893 as a small component of a meteorite in Arizona by Dr. Ferdinand Henri Moissan. Naturally occurring moissanite is exceedingly rare, having an appearance similar to that of diamond and a tetrahedral crystalline structure.

However, moissanite jewelry is largely a lab-created stone based on the structure of natural moissanite, which is linked to meteorites. On Mohs� scale of hardness, moissanite is 95. It has more brilliance, fire and luster than any hard jewel on earth, including diamond.

Naturally, price also plays a big role in the popularity of moissanite. As a general rule, a


moissanite stone retails at about 1/10th the cost a diamond of equal size, this despite the fact that moissanite has an even greater ""sparkle.""

Because the gem is not nearly as expensive as a diamond, the price of a man�s moissanite wedding ring will depend more on the material and design of the ring than the stone.

Moissanite is a less expensive though stunningly beautiful alternative to diamonds. While it may not please a woman, who has a special emotional attachments to diamonds, it is an appropriate substitute for a man who loves the look of an expensive stone but does not want to pay the price.
