They Do 😂 They All Hating On Moissanite
Don't hate broke boy
It doesn't look fake, I have both and just got a 3 carat moissanite set in platinum and it's STUNNING!! I will never buy natural diamonds again, lab diamonds and moissanite ALL DAY!!!!
Why would it look fake when it's a Moissanite? It's a Moissanite, not meant to look like a diamond as people advertise. It's, its own stone.
He wasn’t calling moissanite a fake diamond he was saying it looks like when someone tries to counterfeit a fake diamond (it looks like a fake diamond, not it is a fake Diamond”,

Il never buy diamond s again
Lab diamond 💎 are real diamond,Same composite same chemical everything is identical from lab diamond to natural diamond they are technically called conflict free diamonds because of all the people getting killed know the movie blood diamond OK now CZ stones are completely fake lab diamonds are real diamonds
Moissanite is a man's best friend
😂😂😂
Lmao 🤣 🤣 🤣
Exactly!
You are not wrong lol
_Moissanite: _*_''Better, Cheaper, Brighter, Prettier''_*
_Diamond: _*_''Stronger''_*
Not even by much either, it’s only like .5 higher on the hardness scale so it’s not like it’ll realistically ever be damaged
Even when you clean it and it sparkles, it soon loses the brilliance. Okey as a travel-ring. I don't want to sit on needles because I wear an expensive ring, turn it into my hand to hide it or misplace it abroad. Better safe than sorry.
@@anna-lenameijer9942 neither diamond or moissanite lose their brilliance. Stop hating. In fact moissanite lasts longer in between cleans because it attracts dirt and grime less
@@Youthinasiaa essAaaaas rjy I’ll lbbm bv
@@Youthinasiaa sorry gch
I think the Moissanite is prettier 🤷🏻♀️
Me too
I agree! We have been PROGRAMMED by diamond companies to believe that anything other then a diamond isn't acceptable. Glad I got a 2 carat moissanite from my fiance. I love HIM and it. ❤️ 😁🥰 💍
Imagine if the fine gemstones industry discovered moissanites before diamond and then that was what was marketed to us first.
We would have been conditioned to think that Diamonds don’t have desirable sparkle because their retractive index is too low compared to a moissanite.
Moissanite is clearly better looking, but thanks to really good marketing we collectively have a tough time separating diamonds from the idea of an engagement ring.
People literally going into debt in order to obey marketing.
@@reneehilscher6176 - My first husband bought me a really nice diamond, which I sold after we broke up. I never thought I'd marry again, was down on all of that until I met the right guy, I guess, but when we got married, I went with a CZ, because I didn't want to force him to go into debt to get me jewelry. (C&C didn't start selling moissanite until a couple of years later.) My original wedding set was eaten by the garbage disposal (long story), and I replaced it with an aquamarine set, because it was pretty. I went from a size 5.5 to a size 6 in nearly twenty years of marriage, so my husband gave me a new set of my choosing for Christmas 2023. I chose moissanite. Not because I'm cheap or because we can't afford a diamond, but merely because it's so pretty.
I think so too, I’d like to be friends
My engagement ring is moissanite and I LOVE IT. It's been several years since we got it and it's still so sparkly and I get compliments on it from strangers all the time. It's second only to diamonds on the hardness scale so it's great for wearing every day. Highly recommend!
I have both. I love my Moissanite!
“They are sparklier than a diamond “
Take my money.
They are sparklier than a diamond AND 10 times cheaper LOL
@@DeMooniC They are sparklier... in a different colour. CZ's are also sparklier than diamond but they still look trash and cheap because of the rainbow colours.
@@jamescelliers3195 - Nah, CZs are definitely NOT more sparkly than a diamond. They go dull after a bit of wear. And if you think that something that is sparkly looks "cheap" and "trash", you must think a lot of diamonds look trashy. Honestly, I have to tell people I'm not wearing a diamond. And I do, because I'd rather people not believe I'm stupid enough to pay $20K for a piece of gravel.
Some pll don't like the fact that in larger sizes moissanite looks too clear almost like glass, which makes it look fake like plastic. Ppl complain about it on forums
@@Kensbev No, I clearly said they look bad because of the rainbow colours of the sparkle, not the sparkle itself. Its clearly rhinestone. Diamond sparkles mostly white and anyone who thinks a CZ id a diamond has never actually seen a real diamond before. I can spot CZ from a mile away, you don't even have to look hard its very obvious.
Moissanite honestly seems the better pick to me, because I like my jewelry to be shiny and have a sort of fantasy look😂
It really depends who you buy it from one carat for $800 is extremely expensive for one stone of Moissanite, There's places where you can get a 1 carat stone of moissanite for less than $80
Rightly said
Exactly. The best Moissanite retailer (Charles and Colvard) doesn’t sell one carat of Moissanite for $800. The guy who made this must sell diamonds. 😂
Natural Moissonite has a higher price point than lab moissonite due to its rarity.
@@Cerez78 Moissanites sold on the market as cut stones are all manufactured synthetic.
@@phoenixadams9962 interesting. That means jewelers are scamming consumers with false claims by labeling their expensive certified moissonite as "natural".
Moissanite: is pretier, and cheaper
Humans "i like dimond"
I feel like it's one of those things where the fake doesn't feel right to some people
@@GalacticYuna fake?? Its real moissanite!
@@weatles_5798 yeah but it's known as a 'fake diamond' is what i mean.
It's considered an impersonator, it seems dishonest, deceitful. Impure because it's not a real diamond. He said it himself: it's often shinier and has a tinted light, making it feel fake.
@@GalacticYuna ._. yeah, and my joke is about how people are fucking stupid because of that. If moissanite was the original ring everyone would want that because it symbolizes marrige even though you can have any ring not just dimond. If everyone wanted moissanite in the beginning it would be the more expensive one. And if it was the original no one would think it looked fake because well, it looked prettier in the first place
@@weatles_5798 yeah basically... But it would be that way for a lot of things
Note: i'm too young to be buying much jewellery but i love looking at jewellery and looking into the materials used. I don't really consider the price because i don't buy
Wait so it sparkles more and is 1/10 the price!? Why not buy that!?
EXACTLY!!!!!!
Cuz people like to have bragging rights to say that they have real diamonds. That’s pretty much why everyone buys diamonds instead of moissanite when moissanite is the clear winner any day
@@oouzzy5100 so basically ego?
@@flippyfliperson4092 yup pretty much
Because of a hundred or more years of mass marketing telling us that we need diamonds to show our love…
Basically diamonds used to be fairly worthless and the rich people that owned the diamond mines didn’t like that so advertising comes into play…
Only reason diamonds are more valuable is because of tradition…
False. Diamonds are expensive because the market is highly controlled. Diamonds are not rare under any stretch of the imagination. When you control the supply, you establish baseline value. Ethiopian opals are considered higher quality than Australian, but 95% of opals come from Australia. They are the market leader so they get to call the shots. Diamonds are also valuable due to their hardness and their conductivity. There are plenty industrial uses for diamonds from knife hones to tools.
And Marketing by De Beers
nah it’s artificial shortage, diamonds are pretty “common” not rare like they want us to know….
Other colored gemstones like sapphires are more traditional than diamonds
Karat Rating: Am I a Joke to You?
I love my moissanite engagement ring and honestly regret getting a diamond wedding band…there wasn’t a point. People compliment my ring so often and can’t even tell it’s not a diamond.
Well, you just have a little bit of both worlds! Glad you love your moissy though! You can always get a moissanite anniversary ring after reaching a certain milestone or something along the likes of that.
@@Alexandra-rb7ju aww I love that! That’s actually a good idea
I make sure to point out to people, when they compliment my rings, that they're moissanite. My engagement ring would cost $20K if it were a diamond (7mm x 7mm cushion cut). Even if we had that kind of money, I don't want people to think we're stupid for spending it on a rock that has no more intrinsic value than a piece of gravel.
Somebody needs to educate them selves a bit more. You can get a Moissanite of any clarity ie meaning it won't be yellow
Is there different Mossanites?
Ah you mean color or hue? Clarity has nothing to do with the hue color he mentioned
Yes but the “colourless” ones are still a bit more colour tinged than the diamond colourless ones. Still price is just not worth it
The moissanite is much prettier. The diamond looks like a fake moissanite.
😂
Hahaha
👏👏👏
Brilliant! 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣yep!
A moissanite is a Diamond alternative., It’s just as beautiful and is far more affordable! But both are beautiful!
He said that a 1 CT. moissanite is $800....I just bought a 1 CT. and didn't pay anywhere near $800. The only drawback to a moissanite it SUPER sparkly and it can look fake, but I'm gonna keep wearing it!
Yep, i just got a 2.5ct emerald cut set in 10k Gold for $135.
Don't look on it as a drawback! It looks like real moissanite and that's great! 😊
He may be referring to natural Moissonite which is extremely rare and has a bigger price tag.
@@Cerez78 it's not available in crystals large enough to facet. Except as tiny specimens, it's not on the market except as manufactured. It is pretty. I bought a 1 carat Moissanite wholesale from a supplier for $5.87, and set it in a ring to see if it would be acceptable to the people I make jewelry for, and they loved it. I'm glad it's so cheap at wholesale, not $400, $800, $1000 or any of the other crazy prices some of these jewelers are quoting in their videos. How they can do that with a straight face is a secret known only to jewelers.
Moissanite all the way! So sparkly and pretty!
Moissanite VS Diamond, what's the difference?
Me: "Nothing but the price and bragging rights"
Moissanite is life! ❤
I will NEVER buy another Diamond again, the Moissanite Sparkles so much, and Passes the Test of Diamond. 💎💎💎
I'm not the smartest person in the world, but that Moissanite ring hits harder than that diamond ring 🤔
I prefer moissanite. And how can you say it looks fake because of it's brilliance? That is its natural sparkle. How can that be fake? Your ignorance does not make the moissanite fake.
He’s saying it’s identifiable, so you can tell if someone is trying to pass off some thing as what it’s not.
@@Wetknees ... Then the person is fake, not the stone.
I agree. My idea of fake would be a gigantic and cloudy stone such as a clear cubic zirconia with little fire. To me, that would seem fake. But moissonite looks great and looks like diamonds.
Moissanites are more sparkling, cleaner and whiter than most diamond sold at high street jewellery stores. It's a life long stone.
I would be fine with the moissanite. I’d rather save the money honestly-
Honestly I’d be fine with having moissanite
Even if I was billionare I would not buy those shitty ass overpiced carbon rocks know as diamonds lmao
Moissanites look better, are almost as hard and are 10 times cheaper lol
And if that wasn't enough, moissanites are actually a rarer natural gem stone than diamonds...
Moissanite is literally better than diamond I don't know who wouldn't want it if they want a good engagement ring
the diamond looks more greyish to me honestly. the moissonite cheks every box, theyre prettier, cheaper and not mined by slaves. every jewelry channel on youtube tries to sell diamonds to me as being superior but every time they fail lol were not falling for this crap anymore, de beers can go kick rocks, we got an better alternative now and its way better.
The moissanite I own is graded the color D which is very white/clear. No hue at all! And it is so beautiful! I would prefer a moissanite in my wedding ring as opposed to diamonds
Prefer gold over diamonds, but I still enjoy watching you and your videos.
Next time im getting moissanite
JTV sells them
Just bought my girl 1 carat earings. Dimounds are well beyond what I would be prepared to pay. There earings after all
Moral of the story get the moissanite
Diamond buyer: idiot
Moissanite buy: smart
Not true. Moissanite is almost indistinguishable from diamonds. They can be D colorless and near flawless too. And they often pass the diamond tester in jewelry stores. In its natural form, Moissanite is much much rarer than diamonds. The Moissanite used for jewelry is man made, beautiful and affordable. I can sense that the maker of this video is a diamond seller.
So if I buy a Moissanite ring I'm not getting a space diamond? That's kinda the appeal for me.
@@TainaPR2024no unfortunately not. Most likely the moissanite you will purchase here on earth, will be lab created lol. No asteroid.
@@TainaPR2024lab created moissonite is the same hardness and chemical composition as natural. So if you buy lab, it's still considered a natural stone.
I’ve never seen anyone ask someone if their ring is a “real diamond” so who the f really cares! If you know people who ask that, you’re around the wrong people. I just want a pretty ring, I don’t care.
I own 3 of these they are all very beautiful ! I have real Diamonds and gemstones also I collect them !
Both are pretty.
I like diamond 💎
I just bought a $60 moissanite and it looks just like that one
"fake diamond look"
says somebody to something that's overall visually more beautiful and appealing than diamond🤣
Yes but it’s NOT a diamond. They have different dollar values.
I have a two carat moissanite wedding set and I paid 1600 for it. Diamonds are marked up and have been marketed as rare and superb. The truth is that most people are walking around with low quality diamonds because the cut and clarity for something that looks as good as moissanite are going to cost you thousands of dollars. Save your money. My moissanite is still dazzling.
The Difference Is That Moissanite Isn't A Diamond
Holy shit how didnt i know
he’s a genius
Einstein.
Still passes the diamond test nobody will never know unless u tell them or take it to a jewelry store 🤷♂️
@@weega9852 no it doesn't
Moissanite is the future.
Moissanite is the prettier girl that the popular girl (Diamond) is jealous of
I have a full set of diamonds (from SI1-VS) and yet I got my lady some Moissanite earrings that out beat all my shit 😂 it’s fire and they taking over
If the stones value/selling point is how sparkly it is as well as clarity what’s the point in paying 10x for a less sparkly stone with the same clarity ?? There is none
I think you just prefer real diamonds and that’s ok. But moissanites are absolutely beautiful 🤩 and do not compare to a cheap CZ or do not look fake. When you see one in person you’ll be hooked. Unless you’re a jeweler. A lot of jewelers are against moissanites bc they sell for much less..
I'd definitely choose moissanite! It's ideal.
Yet I love Moissanite way more.
Both plentiful and abundant gems of the earth that people put a price tag on
The person talking in this video must own a jewelry store
The Moissanite was more pretty 😂
I gotta be honest, it sounds like moissanite is infinitely better.
I know what you mean, sometimes in certain settings and certain moissanite stones do you have more of a fake look others sometimes certain more of the brilliance or oval shape can look up bit more natural
Moissanite lighter Diamond Darker got it
BEAUTIFUL DYMOND RING EXCELLENT MODEL FANTASTIC DESIGN WONDERFUL SHOP
Close enough. Stop paying the diamond cartels
bought a 2.5 ct mois for under $500
You can get colorless and crushed ice which maybe mutes the flashes and there hearts and arrows which are different cuts of moissanites. taht shines like diamonds
So someone can sell moissanite and say it's a diamond and it would be believable?
Yeah that's why I don't buy diamond. It's a ripoff.
@@Hboogie182 and u have no girl and your poor
@@Prince-gu8or condescending me so you can feel better about your diamond purchase? LOL
ITS STUNNING
@@Prince-gu8or So you want a girl who wants only your money?
Thx for unintentionally teaching me geography (you know the rock lessons)

@@embenard 🤣
Um..... someone want to tell her? No.....
Why would you buy something that an untrained eye cannot distinguish from diamond? They both react to diamond tester in exactly the same way right? Will the shop where you buy a diamond buy it back when you come back the next day to re- sell it? No.. right? 🙄
It also depends on lighting and quality of the Moissanite
True, some moissanite is cheaply made and/or poorly cut. The same could be said of diamonds or any other gemstone. My daughter found a ring on the bottom of her grandmother's jewelry box that wasn't very pretty. We assumed it was CZ, only to find out we've been letting her wear a 1 carat tw diamond ring around for years. Now that we've cleaned it, it looks very similar to my moissanite. I honestly don't think that anyone who hasn't been trained to distinguish a diamond from other white gemstones would know the difference between her ring and mine.
As much as I love moissanite. The sharp facets of a diamond are just pretty to look at.
I feel like this was a video just to trash moissanite by calling it names like "fake" or "cheap". When it is, in fact, none of those things. I see moissanite as a completely different stone from a diamond, and there is no need to compare the two or knock one over the other. The only reason why this happens is because the diamond industry doesn't want you to buy moissanite, and people around you feel the need to make fun of your ring for "not being a diamond" because they need to justify spending more money, I guess.
I received a moissanite ring as well as a "star" named after me. Whenever I look at my moissanite ring, I think of the star named after me up in the sky. I would never trade the experience or the ring for a diamond simply because it's a gemstone grown in the earth, and the belief that a natural stone is somehow better than an alternative.
Exactly! The diamond industry is a big scam anyway. Let the rich people continue to buy their "diamonds". Moissanites are nearly as hard as diamonds, and the most brilliant gemstones on earth. 1/10th the cost.
We as humans put more value onto one shiny rock over the other that looks the same. I’ll never understand spending so much on a ring, not like it’s a computer or house where you’ll notice the difference of having one that’s cheap vs expensive.
People are saying he's trying to sell the diamond? Guy literally is showing reasons why people should get moissanite. He's literally making it extremely one-sided in favor of moissanite
If moissanite sellers controlled the market: "Diamonds have less brilliance and fire, giving it that fake moissanite look. Diamonds also have more cleavage planes, making them more prone to chipping. Moissanites are forever whereas diamonds oxidate and turn into graphite."
Don't call it fake. It's moissanite ...😊
True that. Moissonite is a natural material.
Same for me would never buy a real diamond again
Moissanite is the best
And more for your buck
I am wearing a cuban link moissanite and I LOVE it! It is also VVS D color.
Got my fiancé moissanite (discussed before purchase) and she loves it and is glad we chose that option. It was a custom 2 karat ring about 2500$ and it’s perfect. Never will buy a real diamond lol unless I’m rich
No more diamonds for me. Moissanite jewelry only..
Fun fact for all of you reading this: Moissanite is rarer than Diamond and comes from Space. It was first Discovered in Arizona and was found inside of a meteorite crater. So basically Moissanite=Space Gem 💎
Moissanite: create in lab, ingredients: some chemical, so its cheap
Natural Diamond: create in nature, ingredients: poor black people, munitions, blood, black dollar. So it's expensive
So the shinnier one is cheaper but “look fake” so you shouldn’t buy it? What?
Well at least you’d be able to pass the diamond tester.
Professional diamond tester: son of a b-
My engagement ring is a moissanite
Gonna buy one pogU
Thanks 4 this info so that we know which diamonds is a fake or genuine
so moissanite it is, thank you!
So now being too shiny is bad 😂 Moissanite > Diamond, it just is what it is !
Yes sapphire is less shiny and more rare then diamonds let's market that stone as the real diamond
Amazing ❤
Wooow so amazing ❤
Moissanite all dayyy babyyyyyy
Conclusion: Moissanites are better looking and cheaper. Diamond are overrated and overpriced and look a tiny bit worse lol
Who would in their right mind ever pay 10 times the price for a worse looking product?!?!?
Diamonds are a scam for real...
Fun fact, nautral moissanites are also rarer than diamonds, not just better looking.
MOISSANITE ANY DAY.... ❤️
moissinate looks better to me
I love my moissanite!!
I feel like diamond is better if you want that clear crystal look and moissanite is better if you want a sparkly look. I'm more partial to opal because it provides its own opaque backing yet is still shiny on the surface.
Both are beautiful, although I personally think the diamond has more depth and contrast.
Thank YOU so much💕
The purity of diamonds isn't substituted by any other stones
Yeah I’ll take the mossanite
NGL that moissanite looks FAR BETTER
A Moissanite diamond ring can be set in a variety of settings, including solitaire, halo, pave, or three-stone settings. The ring's band can be made of various materials, such as yellow gold, white gold, rose gold, or platinum, to complement the stone's color and overall look.
One of the advantages of a Moissanite diamond ring is that it is more affordable than a traditional diamond ring of the same size and quality. Moissanite stones also come in a range of sizes, shapes, and colors, giving buyers more options to choose from when selecting a ring.
Damond’s can have a yellow hue too if it’s not near colourless
Spend less on the stone, more on the metal. Thats where the real value is.
there is a special way to check the purity of diamond..... because the fake ones don't have so much carbon 😊
