About Moissanite

Moissanite was first discovered in 1893 by Nobel Prize winner Dr. Henri Moissan, in the Canyon Diablo meteor crater. These astonishingly brilliant natural crystals were too scarce and tiny to set into jewelry, so scientists tried for many years to re-create them in the laboratory. Now, thanks to state-of-the-art technology, moissanite is finally available for use in jewelry.

Color and pedigree

Moissanite is nearly colorless with excellent brilliance and fire. Moissanite crystals are created in a laboratory.

Taking it home

Moissanite is a great choice for everyday wear, because it is highly resistant to scratches, chipping and breaking.

Moissanite jewelry can be cleaned the in a jewelry ultrasonic cleaner or by using a commercial (non-acid based) jewelry cleaner.

About Gold

Gold is more than just a pretty face

People don’t just love gold because it sparkles; for centuries, it’s been cherished for being strong. Gold is also malleable enough to suit endless designs, so it’s an excellent foundation for all types of jewelry. And because it’s resistant to corrosion, tarnish and rust, your gold jewelry will look new for a long time.

Gold is very malleable making it ideal for jewelry designs, but to give it the strength needed for it to withstand wear it must be alloyed with other metals such as copper, silver, zinc or nickel. The percentage of pure gold to alloys is expressed in karatage. 24k would represent pure gold. 14k represents 14 parts gold and 10 parts alloy. In the United States fine jewelry is generally created using 18k, 14k or 10k gold.

Yellow Gold

The shade of yellow gold can vary based on the alloy. As the amount of gold increases, so does the brightness of the yellow color.

White Gold

When yellow gold is mixed with nickel and zinc, it becomes white gold, which looks similar to platinum. White gold is often finished by plating it with rhodium, which will give it an even whiter, more brilliant appearance.
