Give her a gift better than diamonds. Give her moissanite. 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. And we have this swoon-worthy stone born from the stars and grown by scientists right here for a down-to-earth price!
According to the Gemological Institute of America, moissanite outperforms all other 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. The way the light dances inside moissanite is something to behold.
A 1-carat diamond of this color and clarity sells for more than $5,000. Two years ago moissanite was over $1,000 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 and are able to undercut the moissanite market., reducing the price of moissanite by 88%! It’s pure genius. Our Nobel Prize-winning chemist would be proud.
For Valentine’s Day, give her our Moissanite Heart Ring and Earrings, jewelry that sparkles like her eyes did the first time you said “I love you.” Every time she wears these, she’ll be reminded of all her favorite moments with you.
