Confused between diamonds and MYZA? Let us break down the dilemma for you. Read this blog to find out what should be your ideal pick between the two.

The difference between MYZA and diamond is quite hard to tell when it comes down to appearance. Both the gemstones look stunning and can elevate any outfit from drab to fab in no time. However, the most striking factor distinguishing a moissanite from a diamond is the cost associated with the gemstone. Moissanites cost almost 20-30 times less than a diamond. 

Comparing MYZA With Diamond - What’s Better & Why?  

If you are confused about whether to buy a MYZA jewelry or go for a diamond one, here are a few factors to help you make your pick;

Reason 1: Brilliance

Diamond - We cannot leave out diamonds when we talk about brilliance. A diamond can reflect light in all directions with a high refractive index. Due to the total internal reflection, a diamond can emit amazing luminosity. Diamond has an average brilliance score of 2.42 on the refractive index.

MYZA - In terms of brilliance, MYZA jewelry is no less than an actual diamond. Its refractive index is 2.65, even more than a diamond's. The chemical properties of Moissanites help to slow down, bend and reflect light in all possible directions. 

Reason 2: Color

Diamond - Contrary to the word ‘color,’ the color in a top-quality diamond refers to the absence of color. Its color grading system ranges from D to Z, wherein D denotes the purest colorless diamond, while as we move towards Z, the diamond starts picking up on a yellow or brown hue. Now you know why diamonds come in all colors.

MYZA - Just like diamonds, moissanites are also found in a range of hues. However, the premium quality ones at MYZA do not have any color - much like the best quality diamonds. Our moissanites are either colorless or barely have any color in them. All of them fall in the D, E, and F color range. What’s more? MYZA moissanites do not have fading tendencies and aren’t prone to tarnishing at all - that’s a guarantee.

Reason 3: Carat

Diamond - By carat, we mean the weight of the diamond. One carat of a diamond comprises 100 points. So, the price of a diamond increases with an increase in the size of the diamond. Larger diamonds are harder to find.

MYZA - To understand the actual weight of a MYZA gemstone, we use the DEW scale. DEW is known as the equivalent diamond weight and is often used to draw a comparison between the two gemstones to arrive at a fair weight of the stones. This means, every piece of moissanite gem at MYZA is true to its said weight - no deceit whatsoever.

Reason 4:  Clarity

Diamond - A diamond’s clarity is one of the primary ways to determine the quality of the gemstone. No two diamonds will look and feel the same - their inclusivity is what sets them apart! Common markings include needles, pinpoints, feathers, and clouds.

MYZA - Moissanites are synonymous with flawless beauty. The clarity ranges between VVS1 and 2 Grades. Unlike diamonds, MYZA moissanites form in labs, and one can control its formation process completely, thereby having the option of regulating its inclusions. Hence, the incredible clarity!

Reason 5: Cost

Diamond - Owing to their rare properties and availability, diamonds are one of the most highly-priced gemstones. If you buy a carat of VS1 diamond, it will cost you over two lacs, while one carat of MYZA will barely cost INR 8000.

MYZA - One of the top-most reasons people switch to MYZA jewelry from diamonds is the price point. A ring at MYZA starts at INR 8000. So well, they cost only a fraction and will last a lifetime with minimal care. What more to ask for?

Reason 6: Durability

Diamond - The durability of diamonds is exceptional. It is not vulnerable to any substance - acid or heat. A diamond only endures any damage when there is a sudden temperature change.

MYZA - On the MOHs scale, MYZA comes second to diamond with a hardness of 9.25. It is as sturdy, durable, and scratch resistant as diamonds. The best part? No other gemstone other than diamonds can offer the same durability.

Who’s The Winner?

Moissanites and diamonds are the most popular choices in engagement rings, owing to their stunning looks and durability. It is no surprise that diamonds have been considered a girl’s best friend for decades, but the affordability and brilliance of Moissanites have been stealing the show for quite some time now! So who’s the winner? We’d say both. 

However, if you’d want to try your hands on modern yet chic designs and wouldn’t mind giving a break to diamonds - head to MYZA and be spoilt for choices!
