From the mind of a scientist and the eye of an artist, we present
Moissanite created by Charles & Colvard.
After a century of research, only one company in the world is
capable of growing moissanite crystals suitable for use as a
precious jewel. Charles & Colvard uses our own uncommon
combination of art and proprietary science to turn these rare
jewel-quality crystals into stunning moissanite jewels.
The cutting specifications for moissanite jewels are designed to
maximize the brilliance and fire inherent in the material. To
maximize the light reflecting from a faceted moissanite jewel
requires the design of shapes with proportions and angles unlike any
other jewel.
Using computer modeling, they create proprietary designs to display
the maximum light reflection based on the optical properties (i.e.
fire, brilliance and luster) of moissanite jewels. A unique version
of the round brilliant cut was the first shape developed applying
these computer models. Recently they designed new fancy shapes that
eliminate dark areas commonly found in other gemstones with these
fancy cuts. We believe these proprietary designs enhance
moissanite's physical properties for the superior optical
performance observed in faceted moissanite jewels.
