The moissanite was introduced in the late 90’s and it gained popularity almost immediately.  The gem was discovered quite a long time by Dr. Henri Moissan in a meteor crater in Arizona.  Yes, this gem is actually a part of a meteorite, a piece of a star.  Moissanite rings are a good alternative to the usual diamond ring, although, saying that it is an alternative makes it seem like a simple replacement.

That is not the case; the moissanite holds a different reputation as compared to other gems.  It was discovered in 1893 and it was only released in 1998 – just think, it took more than a century for this gem to get perfected and available and now that it is available, you have the opportunity to wear a piece of a star in your hands.

Moissanite rings can be made for both men and women.  The styles that are available for men normally require smaller cut moissanite stones.  This is because men’s rings are usually more focused on having a good quality band.  Although the center of the design is the band, the accent of having moissanite rings can be comparable to having diamonds.

There is a big difference when it comes to price but the sparkle of the moissanite does not fade in time.  Similar to other gems, the moissanite is also measured by the four C’s, carat, color, cut and clarity.  To be able to get a good moissanite gem, you need to have a skilled gemstone cutter; he will be the one responsible into making sure that you get the best moissanite gem that you can ever get.  This gem, combined with a good metal base will result to a good ring for any man.

For men, moissanite rings are a better option, it is more affordable than a diamond, but the sparkle it gives off is certainly unique.  At the same time, it goes well with any metal; yellow gold, white gold, platinum or titanium.  This particular gem also works in different cuts. The most popular is the round cut, however, if you have a skilled jeweler, you can request to have the gem cut in a different way depending on what particular design you have in mind.

Whatever cut it will be or whatever design it is, the result will definitely be great, it’s not every day that you get to wear a piece of a star.
