BOUGHT A 4 CT MOISSANITE engagement ring for my wife in 2005. With the money I saved. We put a huge down payment ($120,000) on a beautiful home. Which is now paid off. I think owning a home instead of a diamond was a better choice. I recommend a house.
Simulant means fake. Moissanite is not a diamond simulant, a cz is a diamond simulant. It is it's own gemstone even though they are lab grown. Lab diamonds are a diamond synthetic, they are real diamonds but not from the earth. Moissanite is a diamond alternative. They do not look anything alike and you can easily tell the difference, at least I can tell them apart easily. Both diamonds and moissante are beautiful and I can understand why woman prefer one or the other. I myself prefer diamonds but your ring is beautiful.
Cz are also their own gemstone! :) a diamond simulant is anything that isn't a diamond but looks like it/passes for one. A diamond alternative is literally anything that isn't a diamond lol I love both too, it's amazing we have so many choices nowadays
Well, to my untrained eye moissanite looks super similar to a diamond. But I hope to update you or anyone on this thread after I receive my moissanite tennis bracelet that I got from----- not on TikTok.....but I'm still too embarrassed to mention, so I'll refrain from now lol
Love this ! I am getting one for our 5 year anniversary. Not doing diamond again period ! With the price and quality of Moissanite we will be able to invest money instead and can afford upgrades on different styles! 🙌
I absolutely love my moissanite ring! We decided to go with a 3.5 ct pear shape, lab diamond halo and lab diamonds on the band. The contrast of the moissanite with the diamonds is absolutely stunning! I also filmed a YT video, if anyone is interested in viewing. Happy ring shopping!
You finally convinced me. My 2ct brilliant cut arrived today. It's nicer than my genuine diamo🎉nd. Kicking myself for the huge expense first time round. Thanks for convincing me. Obsessed!
Sorry but i can easily tell the difference between Moissanite and a diamond, however i cant tell the difference between lab and natural diamonds. And lab diamond can be very very affordable depending on where you get it from. I own all three of these stones and prefer lab diamonds the most. I feel like lab gets you best of both worlds. No hate on Moissanite though, they are very pretty.
My engagement ring is a 9x7mm emerald cut moissanite with 1ct lab created diamonds on band and hidden halo on 18k yellow gold from True Gem. I absolutely love my ring and get compliments daily. I am not ashamed to state that the center stone isn't a diamond and nobody has said anything negative nor do I care. Daily wearing it and no scratches looks perfect and have had it over 2 years. The only thing that I have noticed is an oil slick on the surface, wouldn't clean with anything at first until I used Bar Keepers Friend and buffed it out easily, and having my ring for 2 years only had to clean it once this way. Your ring is gorgeous 🤩!!!
That last point is so vital!!!! There are so many happy marriages that don't even have any fancy rings to "symbolize" it. Either moissanite or diamond it doesn't matter
Beautiful ring. My fiance proposed to me with a 4 carat moissanite, but unfortunately, the stone fell out from the setting. After several months of owning it, I decided that I preferred the look of a diamond, so my fiance will be gifting me a lab diamond ring before we wed. That being said, I received a tonne of compliments on my moissanite ring and many others appreciated the rainbow sparkle.
Beautiful, ring! I feel you in the not being the most careful with precious jewelry. That’s why I got moissanite on top of the fact I could get bigger! My ring is also slightly bigger than my Actual ring size because I live in florida and the heat makes my hands swell up so badly I needed mine to be comfortable. My advice on that is if it is feeling to loose because of cold and fingers shrinking. I have and simple plain thin band that is my actually ring size and I stick that on top to secure it won’t go anywhere and worst cause let that be the first ring to fly off. I got my simple plain gold band off Etsy for a 100 bucks.
Off the subj: Your nose is pretty, just hope that your new revision doesn't change the look that drastically. Just my 4 cents. Update after end of vid: You seem like such a kind soul with an angelic look and not that it matters so much to me since I don't know you or your hubby, I just hope he's worth more than the price point, because I'm sure you are definitely worth more in terms of gems! I still love diamonds...even the inclusions! I did purchase a moissanite tennis bracelet (small stones with white gold vermille over silver whatever) just to test it out before I may go through the heck of getting a lab created or real diamond bracelet....I hope to update you and your subscribers when I get the moissanite one. Gorgeous ring nevertheless!!
Appreciate the video . The wife and I just bought her ring from the same website. This will be her second wedding/engagement ring. The first one is a diamond but we been looking at rings on their website for a few years now and finally got a chance to get another one. We went with a 2.5 round diamond halo forever one moissanite with diamonds on the sides and a 18k gold band. Should be expecting it in a few weeks. Definitely can’t wait. You actually the 2nd person we’ve seen on RU-vid that ordered from that website. I was a bit worried at first lol. Very nice ring. Congratulations and again great video.
I went with a natural diamond for my future fiances ring, but it's silly to look down on alternatives. Because in this case, it's not a fake diamond, it's a real moissanite. It's much better than a cz or even more fragile gemstones. Different type of sparkle and you can get a much bigger size for the price. Love this ring and happy for yall!
The most important thing in this is how much he loves you respect considering you and the way he treats you as a person also the communication and understanding each other with that is what you live every single day until you die. Also the goal that you have in common. Good luck for all who are in a relationship mutual trust and a lot of communication. Keep taking care of business 😊❤
Moissanite comes from a meteorite these are so rare, you could not afford a meteorite natural Moissanite stone. The difference is the rainbow affect. Moissanite can yellow with age,
As I am looking on this (09/29/23) am looking at your engagement ring and it looks cloudy to me. Have had a stroke and cloudiness greets me every morning when I get up. But I lOVE your rings and am looking to upgrade for my 10th anniversary. Have never had a chance to pick out a ring. Love the Moissanite and what it stands for. Thanks.
You're soooo wrong, you paid wayyyy too much for your moissanite ring, lab cvd and hthp diamonds are much much cheaper if you do your research...if you know where you could get a 2 or 3 carat lab grown diamond with certificate for less than 1000
