Diamond Vs. Moisanite, Moissante Wins Another Round

There I was, smack dab in the middle of no man's land, and I mean no MAN'S land. How do you help a friend choose a Diamond? Working in the Jewelry business has it's percs but I'm no expert nor a salesperson. He wanted to buy a "Right Hand" ring and he was counting on me to pull off a miracle because he has champagne taste but claims beer pockets. My friend is an Engineer, he makes good coin! How about financing? He emphatically refuses, not an option. Can't blame him but Diamonds are expensive, add in the mounting with a gold band and your talking three to four thousand for a decent half carat stone. Fuhget about a Platinum band, that pushes the cost into orbit, no gravity up there if you know what I mean. Even with my employee discount he is still not there. Long story short, I tell him about Moissanite, he's impressed, intrigued, very excited. He checks it out, does his own research, makes a purchase, gives the ring to his lady on her birthday. She is crazy happy, shows off her new stone to family, friends, co-workers, and everyone that notices her new rock. He smiles from ear to ear everytime she tells him how many times someone compliments her ring, all is well in the world. It's a beautiful thing.

Moissanite is mucho beaudacious. If you're in the market for a piece of jewelry that will make a gigantuous impression without leaving a humongous hole in your pocket you will not find any other gem equal to Moissanite. With it's gloramorous fire, this stuff is absotively, posolutely attention grabbing. Not to mention it just happens to be 1/10 the cost of Diamond! You will be making a righteous decision when you choose Moissanite over Diamond. There are many, many ways and settings to exhibit this magnifical gem. Moissanite almost looks like a mini disco light because of the gem-magical way it disperses light. You have to experience it for yourself and compared to the cost of Diamond with virtually the same hardness and durability you have to ask, what's the downside? The answer after ten years is ... we don't know. We haven't found a legitimate downside. The deeper we dug the more we were convinced that this is the real deal. Sweet huh?

Recently while attending a fund raising dinner, my lady was approached by two women who were admiring her ring. We didn't know the women, they were very friendly. My lady was wearing her one carat round cut Moissanite stone, set in a six prong white gold band. Our new friends were in awe of the stone and spouted off question after question. They asked how she got it to shine so much, what did she clean it with? Was it professionally polished? Where did you buy that? Is it a custom piece? Did you have it made from a special type of diamond? When she told them it cost less than five hundred dollars, they immediately responded that there was no way that was a fake stone. She assured them it was not fake, took off the ring and handed it to one of them. They examined it, grabbed her hand and walked her and the ring over to their husbands. WHOA! Honey we aren't buying that are we? Is what one husband remarked when his wife playfully planted it in his face. He took the ring and proceeded to study the stone. Has to be Moissanite he declares. How did you know? My lady asks. Diamond doesn't refract like this, nothing does actually, it's not hard to distinguish, he says. Then he said must be around five ... six hundred? Turns out he was a Jewelery Store owner. He cordially praised the ring but never smiled. It got uncomfortable for my girlfriend at this point so she bailed out as politely as possible but walked away in the clouds knowing her Moissanite ring was the envy of a Jewelery store owner. SUH-WEET!

Why Not To Buy Diamonds

It's no secret that Gemstones and jewel dealers and retailers absolutely dred that Moissanite jewelry even exist. These high-end fine jewelry stores have carved out their own niche which has been very, very lucrative to them over the years. Hawking this over-inflated carbon based Gemstone jewelry has become a finely tuned science for them. You probably have no idea how much margin (profit) is incorporated into Diamond jewelry, Ruby jewelry, Emerald jewelry or Sapphire jewelry sold at a jewelry retailer do you? You also probably have no idea how much a jewelry vendor/wholesaler charges the jewelry retailer for those Diamonds, Rubies, Emeralds and Sapphires either right? It wouldn't surprise you if we told you that the jewelry retailers don't get these Diamonds, Rubies, Emeralds, or Sapphires for free, and that over the years the suppliers have raised their prices to the retailers. OK, that happens, no huge surprise. What might disturb you is that a Gemstone, i.e: Diamond, Ruby, Emerald, or Sapphire is commonly marked up to 400% and higher. Once received from the supplier, these Fine Jewelers make their Gemstone jewelry appear well worth the asking price by placing their Gemstones and jewels in showcases on small, silk pillows with creative lighting and surroundings. They artistically drape the Gemstones and jewels around special velvety props. They spend small fortunes on marketing to draw you in so the very well trained, hand picked, beautiful staff can close the deals. All of this fluff for what? To justify the outrageous cost of course. How do we know this? We have 30 years of retail jewelry business between us and we have purchased Moissanite jewelry with great satisfaction. We know Diamonds, Emeralds, Rubies, and Sapphires, we know Gemstone jewelry, we choose Moissanite and believe you will too.
