The first thing that users notice is that the way this gem catches the light. The light reflects off of the surface, it shines in every color of the rainbow. While some users feel that it makes it glisten in a unique way, other users feel that it can look a little bit like a disco ball.
Another key difference is that some moissanite has a very subtle yellow or gray hue to it. If you don’t like the idea of a hue to your clear gems, you may want to opt for a smaller gem. When you select a larger gem, there is a greater chance that the slight colored hue may be noticeable.
The production of this gem is done 100% in a lab, which means that there is no mining into the earth. If you want your gems to come from a sustainable source but you like the shine of diamonds, you may want to try moissanite!
