Explore the new trend in wedding jewelrymen's moissanite wedding rings. Men are becoming increasingly savy about their choice of wedding jewelry. Many grooms wish to create a unique yet affordable look by exploring different stones and metals. Men's moissanite wedding rings are an attractive and economical alternative to the traditional diamond wedding band.
Moissanite is an increasingly popular choice for men's wedding rings. Though less expensive than the diamond, moissanite is so similar to the diamond in appearance and properties that even those with a trained eye may have trouble distinguishing them. Manufacturers claim that moissanite actually sparkles more than a diamond, and is almost as hard.
Moissanite was first identified as a rare natural substance in meteorites. In the late 1800's, Dr. Henri Moissan, discovered the substance associated with a fallen meteor in Arizona. However, it is only recently that moissanite was available for purchase. Today, moissanite gemstones are synthetically produced for jewelry. Moissanite's durability and resistance to heat make it easy to work with for jewelers. Many people are drawn to the stone's original 'otherworldly' origins, and diamond-like appearance.
Men choosing a Moissanite wedding ring can have the look of diamonds without the exorbitant price. Indeed, the groom can splurge on bigger stones and a more dramatic look by choosing the less expensive material. While less expensive, moissanite is a quality stone that is typically set in gold or other precious metals.
Charles & Covard is the only manufacturer of moissanite. JC Penney now sells the line, calling it 'one of the fastest growing choices for jewels today.' Moissanite rings come with a lifetime warranty, and will endure the years of marriage as well as a diamond. Those interested in purchasing a men's moissanite ring may visit Charles & Covard's website at www.moissanite.com for a list of stores that sell this unique product. |
