Discover our exquisite collection of moissanite engagement rings, crafted with ethically-sourced gems that outshine diamonds in brilliance while costing a fraction of the price. Each ring in our collection combines timeless elegance with contemporary craftsmanship, perfect for the modern couple seeking both beauty and value.
Why Choose a Moissanite Engagement Ring?
Moissanite engagement rings represent the perfect union of ethics, brilliance, and value. Originally discovered in a meteor crater, this remarkable gemstone is now ethically created in laboratories, offering a responsible alternative to mined diamonds without sacrificing beauty or durability.
Our moissanite engagement rings feature stones that possess an extraordinary brilliance and fire that actually exceeds that of natural diamonds. With a refractive index of 2.65 (compared to diamond's 2.42), moissanite captures and reflects light with unparalleled intensity, creating a dazzling rainbow effect that makes every moment shine brighter.
Rated 9.25 on the Mohs scale of hardness (diamonds rate 10), moissanite is one of the hardest gemstones available, ensuring your engagement ring will maintain its beauty through decades of daily wear. Each of our rings is crafted with precision and care, set in your choice of 14K or 18K gold (white, yellow, or rose) or platinum to create an heirloom-quality piece that will be treasured for generations.
Choose moissanite for a ring that's not only stunning and durable but also represents exceptional value, typically costing 70-90% less than a comparable diamond ring. This means you can select a larger stone or more intricate setting while staying within your budget.

How to Choose Your Perfect Moissanite Engagement Ring
When selecting your ideal moissanite engagement ring, consider these factors:
- Stone Size – Moissanite is measured in millimeters rather than carats, though we provide equivalent diamond carat weights for easy comparison. Because moissanite costs significantly less than diamonds, you can choose a larger stone while staying within your budget.
- Cut – The cut determines how light interacts with the stone. Round brilliant maximizes sparkle, while fancy cuts like oval or cushion offer distinctive looks.
- Setting Style – From prong settings that maximize light exposure to bezel settings that provide extra protection, your setting choice affects both aesthetics and practicality.
- Metal – Choose from 14K or 18K gold in white, yellow, or rose, or opt for platinum for the ultimate in durability and prestige.
- Band Design – Consider whether you prefer a simple, classic band or something more detailed with pavé stones or intricate metalwork.
