Moissanite, a rare mineral in its natural form, was synthesized in the laboratory and named silicon carbide (SiC). It is used in jewelry as a gem of its own and as a diamond simulant. It looks pretty much like a diamond. Diamond is a precious stone and moissanite is a lab created gem-quality crystal which can be faceted into near-colorless jewels with incomparable fire and brilliance. Moissanite is truly a unique and beautiful blend of art and science and is emerging as a upcoming star in the world of gemstone jewelry.

It typically falls into the near colorless range of a diamond but a slight green or yellowish undertone can be found in some in particular lighting. It is available in many fancy shapes and sizes. Moissanite should be eye clean. The beauty of massionite lies in the fact that due to differing optical properties it is cut to the different proportions as against diamond.
