Moissanite is a sophisticated diamond alternative. It’s brilliance, sparkle, and hardness makes it identical to the diamond. In terms of sustainability and ethicality, our Moissanite exceeds that of the Diamond. Possessing compelling traits of being conflict-free and ethically sourced and developed, the Moissanite exerts a lower degree of impact to the environment and your finances.
Moissanite is composed of 50% carbon and 50% silicate and has a hardness of 9.25 on the Moh scale. This separates it from other diamond simulants that are composed of high carbon diamond replacements with lower hardness rating of 7.5-8.

No, due to its refractive index of 2.65 it holds an even more brilliant sparkle than the diamond, emitting a rainbow-like glow which is accentuated under the light. The diamond sparkles differently with colorless than a moissanite

At LeCaine Gems, we uphold the highest standards in the creation of all our jewellery pieces. Our industry professionals ensure that our lab-grown Moissanite passes the diamond tester and meets the criterias that are established. At LeCaine Gems, we handle our Moissanite exclusively with Grades D and E which are the highest on the colour scale, to present our customers with extraordinary white or colourless options.

Given its identical physical traits, the Moissanite bears a great resemblance to the diamond, making it difficult to differentiate between the two for the layman. This is also highly dependent on the cut of Moissanite, which makes ours stand out among others.
There is no resale value for Moissanite nor for lab grown diamonds and gems at this point in time. However, the Moissanite’s popularity has been growing steadily over the years. An increasing demand for it can be witnessed in the jewellery market today.
No, natural Moissanite is an extremely rare mineral. At LeCaine Gems, we use our in-house lab-created Moissanite to bring you premium quality jewellery pieces that are crafted by sustainable and ethical means. Lab-created Moissanite gemstones allow for greater versatility and flexibility to better accommodate your jewellery preferences in terms of the gemstones’ cut and shape.
Our Moissanites are certified by third party labs and guaranteed by LeCaine Gems. We do not carry Supernova, Forever One or Charles & Colvard.
Yes we do. Apart from Moissanite, we offer Lab-grown Diamonds as another affordable alternative to natural Diamonds. Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds that are created in labs, this makes it distinct from natural diamonds which are extracted through mining.
For more information, visit our Lab-grown Diamond page.
The lab-grown diamonds are a closer alternative to natural diamonds as compared to Moissanite. Moissanite is made up of 50% carbon and 50% silicate, whereas lab-grown diamonds are made 100% the same as the natural diamond in terms of its physical properties. Lab-grown diamonds are also more expensive than Moissanite.
As you can see, a Moissanite stone is a much cheaper and more ethical choice than a Diamond. Not only do the two have very similar properties, but Moissanite is also more environmentally friendly. If you are looking for an affordable alternative to a Diamond, visit our store today.
