In recent years, the number of men wearing jewelry has increased dramatically, with the popularity of "pearl boys" becoming more prevalent, and the demand for men's jewelry is on the rise. So, this time we would like to introduce moissanite jewelry as a men's jewelry!

A gift from space

Over 100 years ago, in 1893, moissanite was discovered in a meteorite that fell in northern Arizona, USA. Initially thought to be a diamond, the fragment was later discovered to be silicon carbide, an entirely new crystal not found on Earth. As a result, natural moissanite far surpasses diamond and is the rarest gemstone currently existing on Earth. Moissanite is a romantic gift from the universe!

Moissanite characteristics and men's jewelry

1. Shine

The most amazing feature of moissanite is that its refractive index and dispersion, which determine a gemstone's brilliance, are both higher than those of diamond, and its dispersion, which indicates a gemstone's sparkle, is 2.5 times that of diamond. In other words, moissanite is a gemstone that shines brighter than diamond. Therefore, even wearing just one piece of moissanite jewelry will have a strong presence and will elevate even a simple outfit.

⒉ Durability

There are two indices for the hardness of gemstones: "Mohs hardness," which indicates the resistance to surface scratches, and "toughness," which indicates the resistance to cracking and chipping. Moissanite has a hardness of 9.25, second only to diamond at 10, and is higher than sapphire and ruby, both of which have a hardness of 9. Furthermore, because it has a higher toughness rating than diamond, it can actually be said to be a harder stone and more resistant to impacts than diamond. Due to its high durability, moissanite jewelry can be worn constantly throughout one's life. It is therefore perfect for those who find it troublesome to take off jewelry and for active men.

3. Ease of maintenance

While diamonds have an oleophilic nature that makes them prone to absorbing oils and grease, and require regular cleaning, moissanite does not easily absorb dust or oils, so its beautiful brilliance will last even without special cleaning. For this reason, moissanite jewelry can be worn every day without any worries.

4. Color

In addition to colorless moissanite, there are also colored moissanites. In addition to the primary colors such as yellow, green, and black that naturally appear when synthetic moissanite is produced, there are also moissanites in various fancy colors. Moissanite comes in a wide variety of colors, so you can enjoy moissanite jewelry in your favorite color.

5. Price

Thanks to advances in science and technology, you can enjoy jewelry made with the highest quality moissanite at less than one-tenth the market price of diamonds of the same carat weight and quality. This means you can enjoy layering your pieces, or adorning your ears, hands, and neck with moissanite jewelry.

What do you think? We've learned that moissanite is a gift from the universe, full of many fascinating qualities, and the perfect piece of jewelry for men. Why not consider moissanite jewelry when choosing jewelry?
