moissanite

Moissanite looks like diamond in every way. Interestingly, moissanite was originally not from this world and originated from meteorites from outer space. Moissanite is an ideal diamond alternative that is flawless and brilliant in every way. Moissanite, on average, has more brilliance than diamond thanks to its higher fire rating of 0.104 compared to diamond's 0.044. This simply means that moissanite bends light more than diamond.

Compared to diamond, moissanite comes very close, having a hardness of 9.25 on the Mohs scale. It is second only to diamonds in terms of hardness, which means you can rest assured that your moissanite jewelry will last.

In terms of size, 1 carat moissanite is larger than 1 carat diamond.
