When French chemist, Henri Moissan discovered an incredibly rare mineral in a 50,000 year-old meteorite, little did he know the amazing chain of events that would follow. Along with winning a Nobel prize, he gave the world a stone that surpasses even the finest diamond in virtually every aspect that makes a woman go weak in the knees. This stone born from the stars is perfect for letting her know your love for her knows no bounds.
Moissanite is the most brilliant fine stone on earth. According to the GIA (Gemological Institute of America), it outperforms all jewels in terms of its brilliance, fire, and luster. Brilliance comes from the flashes of white light exiting the top and sides of a gemstone. This light show is known as refraction. Moissanite has “double refraction”–– which means light goes down into the stone and comes out not once, but twice. No diamond can do this.
Stauer is THE source for moissanite. Two years ago moissanite was over $1000 a carat. Now, for the first time in history, Stauer gemologists have perfected the science of romance. Our team of scientists and craftsmen have mastered this innovative process, enabling us to sell one-carat of moissanite at this price. Out of this world beauty for a down to earth price. It’s stellar.
