I recommend moissanite to all my customers. It's a great alternative to an expensive diamond and looks every bit as good if not better than a diamond. The money you save on a moissanite engagement ring versus a diamond would go a long way toward paying for a honeymoon!!

Not everyone can afford a D flawless triple ex or I would be happy to sell them one. Moissanite is great for those that can't afford that quality but want a great looking stone or choose to spend their money elsewhere. Unless you carry around your cert and a loupe nobody other than an expert will know you paid all that extra cash for the perfect diamond. @@aamitparekhh

Amit Parekh what is wrong with “fake diamonds” and moissanite isn’t even a fake diamond, it is now known to occur naturally. not everybody wants to support child slave labor, it’s a very ethical alternative.. Also diamonds only have worth because society says so and only gained popularity because of debeers marketing in the 1930s. I advise you to stop being a sheep and also stop trying to prove something to people.

@larila526 5 лет назад
Amit Parekh you’re a moron. It’s not a fake diamond and because something resembles something doesn’t make it a fake. Do you hold the same stance that vegans shouldn’t eat veggie burgers because it resembles meat? It’s about being ethical to a lot of people. If they want something that looks like a diamond without causing harm to children and Slaves mining them, what the hell is the issue? I am so glad more people are waking up and seeing how silly it is to waste $1000s on a depreciating diamond. Oh the fact that you are mad that the exclusivity is now taken away and that you now feel the need to have to prove what you have is real. You’re a joke

judy funnie My girlfriend has scary expensive tastes also her mom was a jeweler...I’d not heard of Moissanite until she mentioned she preferred it to diamond. I don’t know how crazy these things get, but if we had 20k for a diamond, I think she’d like to spend it on one giant or multiple moissanite gems...she could care less about slave children or “authenticity” in the decision process at least. More sparkle and brilliance is simply that, more is more. That’s all diamonds are when you remove the fanfare and hype, and when you know about the industry it’s difficult to buy into that side of it even without the labor ethics clouding it. More is more though, and though the diamond industry has had a hell of a run, practicality will eventually prevail even in the face shill campaigns, etc. knocking them or belittling those who’d even consider them as an alternative for whatever the reason. The campaigns will continue until “they,” De Beers or whoever have positioned themselves at the top of this market which may or may not be possible. It’s about brilliant sparkly things that women like, and more is more as best I can tell.

My boyfriend was under the impression that I wanted a diamond for many years until he admired one of his work colleagues wedding set and she told him all about Moissanite. He came home and told me about it, we did some research on it and agreed to get a Moissy. (very few people know about it here in South Africa- also the one stockist in SA charges triple the amount as the US). So he went on a business trip to New York a month ago and got my stone. Really happy with my forever one- just waiting for it to be set and for the proposal to happen. Thanks for your informative videos F&B! Keep up the good work!

@SS 22 We got it...You sell diamonds. People will not be your suckers anymore! Why should we buy a stone, that cost more than a 100 rarer stones? Just because you told us to? We already established it's not the most brilliant, or clear. So for the hardness? Do you think I can get a 9.3-9.5 scrached? Maybe I can scratch it with a diamond...but nothing else will. And what "oily residue" are you talking about? No one in the world ever complained about that made up fairytale!

I had a diamond ring, I unfortunately lost it, and decided to replace it with a moissanite. I LOVE the moissantite. It’s clear, it sparkles like crazy, and it’s absolutely stunning. My fiancé says he wishes he knew about them before he bought the expensive diamond I ended up losing because of how beautiful the moissanite is.

Thank you for putting things straight into context! Most people don't even inderstand the conception of a diamond, how it is actually overpriced and as a matter of fact a mass product, pricing strictly controlled by the diamond cartels. Up to now Moissanite is actually far more rare than a diamond, but that might change as the production grows 😉 There is still a lot of effort & craftsmanship behind a Moissanite which justifies the price. Here in Germany or general in Western Europe people are completely oblivious to Moissanite, it's a market still to conquer. I got my five carat ACC Moissanite via Etsy from the US, the stone was individually hand cut for me and the setting was also created just as I wanted it. It wasn't exactly cheap, but the same quality as a diamond would have cost me an arm and a leg 😜 I love it as an ALTERNATIVE!

Moissanite passes on a diamond tester.... However, they do make a moissanite tester to test between diamond and moissanite. So basically, jewelers will test a stone on a diamond tester first. Then afte it passes, only some will test on a moissanite tester. Jewelers better get hip to moissanite's growing popularity before they start losing a lot of money.

I have never heard of moissanite before but when I got to the section unbeknownst to me I couldn’t believe how much more brilliant it was and how much less it costs. After doing more research, I’d much rather prefer the moissanite due to it being ethically sourced, shine and price range.

I inherited a solid 18kt wedding moissanite set and tennis bracelet in 2003 , and it was bought in Kentucky by my Great Aunt and I think she paid like 1,200$ for both items ... and now on the C&G website these items are sold for over $15,000 ? So I’m a little confused. I really came to your video just because I wanted to know if my 3.45 carat Charles & Colvard solitaire moissanite is worth anything? Set in 18kt yellow gold and it’s accompanied by a 2.75 carat wedding band to go with it. So it’s basically a wedding set. I also inherited a 10 carat 18kt moissanite tennis bracelet with a safety security chain. Now my aunt gave this to me in 2003 and I think my uncle said he paid $1,300 for both items and so now they seem to sold for over $15,000, and my sets have more gold weight and more Carat weight to them. I was gonna sell both items for 2,000$ but then I looked online Now both of those items come with papers certificates from the C&G company and serial numbers on the certificates and I was browsing online and the wedding set that I have doesn’t even seem to be sold anymore, and the only 10 carat bracelet they have is $6,799 (close to mine in style but mine is heavier) and the wedding ring set on the current website is 2.50 carat and they are selling for $4,599 .... SO I’m assuming mine is worth more? jewelry is only really worth what someone is willing to pay for it right?? I mean how much can I actually get from these items if I sell them?

Cubic zirconia is more porous than diamond or moissanite, which makes it difficult to keep clean. ... In contrast, moissanite is non-porous and requires very little maintenance; the occasional cleaning will suffice to maintain its brilliance and fire.

Hey Michael I just ran upon your channel on an add waiting for my music channel. The things you do is out of this world. I just subscribed to your channel and I'm going to be watching much of your content. I love learning and this is something that has always I don't even know the word literally constricted my brain trying to do this. I'm watching your moissanite video so like it keeps picking your voice up but damn dude you are the real deal I love making jewelry for women because they look so pretty when they wear it..... Oxygen is not fake oxygen is oxygen right and if we can make oxygen into a gemstone imagine what that would look like and is there really a stone that comes from a snake's head?

We got married young, my husband and I both got a simple gold band. Forward: Got a 2 carat diamond cushion around our 20th anni for our 25th. Now we just had our 30th and while I love my real 2 carat diamond I thought I’d get an August cut 3 carat this time. I opted for a 3 carat round moissanite instead 👀. I know, crazy right? But it’s not that much bigger than a 3 carat round. I can’t wait to get it in a few weeks 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 PS: When I said 4 carat round I actually meant 10mm.

Having worked in the jewelry business I notice that the one thing that no one is mentioning is that yes there is a brilliance, hardness on mohs scale, clarity and color can be impressive! The one thing no one mentions to clients or on these infomercials is that just like Alexandrite there is a color change in sunlight unlike a diamond..... unless of course you have a phosphorescent diamond which will glow under a black light and are very notorious with woman who go to clubs and have found their diamonds glow(does not effect the value) but some find it less desirable!! When you are showing off your ring and your in sunlight and instead of capturing the brilliance of light you see yellow it can be very disheartening to the client. When buying or selling a product you must be totally honest and show all the product is capable of. There is nothing wrong with color change but if you sell the item for price and comparability to that of a diamond it isn't. It is man made which is fine but it has its unique properties just like a man made diamond is real but not made by nature. Yellowing in sunlight is a real issue and if people are not aware of this factor you are not being honest not matter how perfect your presentation is it is no selling the true individuality of a Moissanite sell all of the beauty otherwise if a client passes it off as comparable to a diamond some lady or man will be very disappointed it is for some the purchase of a lifetime filled with love and sentiment and the one item that symbolizes enternty and love you must be honest and market it's TRUE BEAUTY COLOR CHANGES AND ALL!!!

All my joints are Moissanite!!! However, my wife's engagement wedding ring, from Kay Jewelers, is actually 1.5ct. Wish I'd known about Moissanite, because Knowing my wife not being a materialistic gold digger, she would've appreciated a Moissanite ring twice the size of her 1.5ct and less expensive😕
@mattcovert8565

And I would also say a lot of people don't ever ever and I mean ever put in that price range for the time the skill and the purity of your heart and making that jewelry or anything it seems. It is easy for me to go and put a set of heads and a cam in somebody's vehicle you try doing that with what you do and the amount of time it would take me to do that come on. That's why jewelry cost so much because it's small it takes attention to detail and it takes a special special heart of that human being making that piece of jewelry to bring that thing to life. I wish I had more people like you around me because that's awesome and what you're doing is awesome

Alex ~ I own several pieces. You will NOT be disappointed!! If you want the BEST prices, I recommend to purchase from JTV and have it reset in 14kt (or 18kt) gold. I knew in 1999 that I wanted to own a good amount of Moissanite. If you want something that puts out more fire and brilliance than that of a diamond, Moissanite is 2.4 times the fire and brilliance. This is a FACT!!!

Alex ~ www.jtv.com then you can just type in "Moissanite" under "Search" ... they are having a pretty good sale this weekend. Also, you can use a credit card, your checking account, or a debit card and you can pay for it over five months on their "stretch pay" program. You pay the first month and shipping when you order something and they will deduct x amount per month for five months (or maybe three or four, depending on the plan, item, etc., etc.), but you will get your purchased item(s) within approximately a week. Let me know if you get anything!! You will NOT be disappointed!!

Thanks for sharing the info! It's appreciated! You may also give us a try at fireandbrilliance.com. We typically carry the most recent versions/brands of moissanite. We also supply coupon codes and a 6 month layaway plan so you'll be able to budget accordingly for high quality moissanite. Many times jewelry sold on TV are mass liquidation sales of previous discontinued versions. Just a thought. Thanks again for following the content! 😊

Bec everyone is diving into the moissanite trend, demand makes the prices comparable to a diamond. Higher demand, higher prices. Esp when you go to a reputable jeweler.
@Thehilemancollection
@Thehilemancollection 6 лет назад
The Charles and Colvard moissanites I purchase are not anywhere close to the cost of a diamond. The same weight diamond is 10 times the cost of the moissanite. If you are paying anywhere close to the cost of a diamond you need to find a different jeweler or supplier.
@tranquility9325

The Hileman Collection I never said it was the cost if a diamond but high demand means higher prices. That goes for anything not just jewelry.
