Love the look of a sparkling diamond but not the biggest fan of the price tag? You don’t actually have to set aside a year’s salary to give her a ring that’ll make her say “Yes!” That’s why we love moissanite. This lab created gemstone gives you every bit the payoff of a natural diamond — a near-colorless look with all the light-catching sparkle.
Here’s a quick bit of trivia on this gemstone: Moissanite was one of those flash-in-the-pan discoveries. In the late 1890s, a chemist found moissanite crystals in the crater of a meteorite — a naturally occuring rarity. Fortunately for humanity, some really smart people like its discoverer Henri Moissan figured out how to recreate these gems that retain a diamond-like look in a lab.
Here are a few of our favorite moissanite engagement rings that’ll give your future fiancée plenty of reasons to say “Yes!”
our picks for moissanite engagement rings
We can’t pick just one of our favorite moissanite engagement rings; it’s not possible. So, with that in mind, here are three moissanite rings we love:
- Remember that big “Heart of the Ocean” diamond necklace in the movie “Titanic”? This sapphire and moissanite ring has more sparkle than the iceberg that hit that ill-fated ocean liner. Plus it has a style that will endure longer than Jack held onto the floating door. This moissanite engagement ring stands out with its radiant blue center stone encrusted with colorless moissanite gems.
- Maybe your relationship began at the skating rink in middle school, or perhaps you swiped right on your phone and found everlasting love. Whichever scenario, give her an engagement ring as unique as your love story. Clocking in at more than 2 carats — sans the 2-carat price tag — this moissanite engagement ring gives her the bling with a bit of hidden intrigue. Look closely and you’ll see hearts and arrows contained within the brilliance of the center gemstone.
- She wasn’t the one that overplucked her eyebrows in the ’90s, and she resisted the urge to wear fuzzy boots and low-rise jeans in the early aughts. In other words, her style is classic, timeless and transcends trends. Choose a ring that speaks to her sophistication, such as the cushion-cut moissanite engagement ring featuring a simple gold band with a sparkling solitaire gem.
unique moissanite engagement rings
You didn’t think we could just pick three rings, though, did you? Here are two additional unique moissanite engagement rings for the future fiancee who wants something unexpected.
- No tiptoeing through the tulips here. This unique engagement ring finished in 14K white gold will keep her floating on clouds with her ring finger fresh as a flower. Intricate metalwork and small moissanite gems surround a sparkling center stone to create a floral effect.
- She’s a little extra, and you love that about her. Chances are she’s got her Starbucks cup, her name-brand handbag that goes wherever she is and all the things monogrammed. Give her more to love with the unique look of a 3-carat white gold moissanite engagement ring featuring a triple band with three rows of twinkling gems.
