Why
Moissanite?

All the brilliance of a diamond. None of the compromise.

✦ ✦ ✦

Moissanite is a lab-created gemstone that rivals the diamond in every measurable way — hardness, brilliance, clarity — while being ethically sourced and available at a fraction of the price. At Peachwell, we believe you deserve the ring of your dreams, without heartbreaking compromise.

What makes Moissanite
the smarter choice

01

Unmatched Brilliance

Moissanite has a higher refractive index than a natural diamond, producing intense rainbow fire flashes that catch the light in ways a diamond simply cannot match. The sparkle is real — and it never fades.

2.69 Refractive index
02

Exceptional Durability

At 9.25–9.5 on the Mohs scale, Moissanite is the second hardest gemstone in the world — directly behind a diamond. It is scratch-resistant, built for everyday wear, and made to last a lifetime.

9.5 Mohs hardness
03

Ethically Created

Moissanite is grown in a controlled laboratory environment — entirely free from the human rights concerns, environmental degradation, and conflict trade that shadow natural diamond mining. Wear it with a clear conscience.

04

Real Value

A Peachwell Moissanite ring gives you D Colour, VVS1 clarity, and a gemstone certificate — at a price that lets you put your money where it matters. Every ring is handcrafted with love, not marked up for a name.

⚠  Please note: Zircon is not Moissanite or a Diamond. These are entirely different stones with different properties. Every Peachwell ring is certified Moissanite — we will never substitute.

"Each Peachwell ring is handcrafted with love,
because you deserve to be loved
with all your heart."
