MM (size) to Carat (weight) charts:
While carat is a measure of weight, it does not always paint the full picture of the visual size of the stone once it's on your finger. For that reason, we recommend learning the length x width MM measurements of your chosen stone.
Please note that we can cut or source any size moissanite or diamond for you - even if it's not listed in these charts.

All About Moissanite
-
Brilliance & Refraction
There is no stone on earth - natural or synthetic, that compares to the brilliance of moissanite. Moissanite is the world's most brilliant gemstone - it is exceptionally bright and sparkly.
-
Fire Dispersion
Moissanite measures at2.4 timesthe fire of diamonds. This results in a beautifully iridescent sparkle. This fire can be either reduced or emphasized depending on the cut of the stone.
-
Clarity
All of our moissanite is graded at VVS+ or greater, meaning that it is free of any visible imperfections: virtually flawless. A clearer stone produces a brighter, more beautiful stone.
-
Durability & Hardness
Moissanite is the second hardest gemstone in the world - second only to diamonds! It is an extremely durable, scratch-resistant stone, making it perfect for everyday wear.
