What is moissanite?

Moissanite is a mineral made from silicon carbide, found naturally only in meteorites. Since it’s rare in the wild, every Moissanite stone you’ll find in GLD jewelry is lab-grown—giving you that diamond-level brilliance and durability without the premium price tag. Plus, it’s eco-conscious, making it a top choice for anyone looking to flex responsibly.


Why moissanite? 

Moissanite is the ultimate gemstone choice for those who want luxury, eco-consciousness, and durability without the hefty price tag. Known for its exceptional brilliance and high refractive index, Moissanite delivers intense sparkle and fire, making it the perfect flex. 

A premium look without a premium cost.  Moissanite boasts a higher refractive index than most gemstones, giving it intense sparkle and unmatched brilliance. Known for its eye-catching fire and luxurious shine, Moissanite radiates in any light, making it a top choice for those seeking a gemstone that truly stands out.

Eco-Friendly.  Each Moissanite stone is sustainably lab-grown, eliminating the need for mining and greatly reducing environmental impact. Choosing Moissanite allows you to enjoy eco-friendly luxury and flex responsibly.

A strong stone for daily wear.  Made from a strong silicon-carbide compound, Moissanite is highly durable and resistant to breaking or chipping. This toughness makes Moissanite an ideal choice for everyday jewelry that lasts, combining style with strength.

 

Is moissanite a diamond? 

Nope—Moissanite and diamonds are two distinct gemstones, each with its own origins and qualities. Moissanite is found naturally only in meteorites, making it extremely rare in the earth’s crust. To bring its intense sparkle and resilience to jewelry, Moissanite is lab-grown from silicon carbide, and is known for its fiery brilliance and durability. Diamonds, by contrast, are formed over millions of years deep within the earth, composed of pure carbon and celebrated for their unmatched hardness. Today, both Moissanite and diamonds can be lab-grown, but each maintains its unique strengths: Moissanite for its exceptional sparkle and fire, and diamonds for their legendary durability.
