Why choose moissanite instead of a diamond for a 1 carat ring?
Compared with a natural diamond of a similar visual size, moissanite is typically available at a significantly lower price. It is also known for its exceptional brilliance and fire, while offering a durable and conflict-free option for everyday jewelry.
Can I customize my 1 carat moissanite ring?
Yes. Depending on the design, you can customize details such as the metal type, gold color, ring size, stone shape, carat size, and setting style. Explore our Customization Guide to learn more about creating a ring that reflects your personal style.
What is the most popular shape for 1 carat moissanite?
Round brilliant cut moissanite is one of the most popular choices for a 1ct ring. At roughly 6.5mm in round cut, it’s the size most brides picture when they imagine “the classic engagement ring.” Its symmetrical shape and faceting pattern create exceptional brilliance and make it easy to pair with a wide range of settings.
Why does my 1 carat moissanite look smaller than expected?
The face-up size depends on the stone’s millimeter dimensions, cut proportions, and setting style. Two stones with the same carat weight can look different in size because more or less of the weight may be distributed below the surface. If size is a top priority, you may also want to explore our 1.5 carat or 2 carat moissanite rings for a larger face-up look.
