Choosing between a moissanite engagement ring and a lab-grown diamond ring? Both are affordable, ethical, and stunning, but they have key differences. Let’s compare!
Moissanite: The Sparkling Alternative
Moissanite is a lab-created gemstone known for its brilliant sparkle and affordability. It’s almost as hard as a diamond (9.25 Mohs scale) and costs up to 90% less.
💎 Best for:
- Extra sparkle (higher brilliance than diamonds)
- Budget-friendly options (moissanite engagement rings under $1000)
- Ethical and conflict-free choices
Popular styles: Oval moissanite rings, emerald-cut moissanite, and moissanite bridal sets.
Lab-Grown Diamonds: Real, but Affordable
Lab-created diamonds are 100% real diamonds, grown in a lab instead of mined. They look identical to natural diamonds but cost 30-40% less.
💎 Best for:
- Traditional diamond engagement rings
- 2-carat, 3-carat, and 5-carat lab-grown diamonds
- Ethical and eco-friendly diamond choices
Popular styles: Oval lab-grown diamond rings, cushion-cut, radiant-cut engagement rings.
Which One Should You Choose?
✔ Choose Moissanite if you want maximum sparkle on a budget.
