How does moissanite compare to diamond?
Moissanite and diamonds look quite similar, with both known for their clear appearance and sparkle. Moissanite reflects light differently and typically features more brilliance and fire than a diamond. Diamonds are the hardest material on earth, ranking a 10 on the Mohs scale, while moissanite is not quite as hard, ranking around 9.25 on the Mohs scale.
