marie asked:


Moissanite or lab-created diamonds (such as Nexus lab diamonds)?

I don’t want a traditional diamond, nor do I want a colored gemstone. I’m looking for something with all the qualities of diamonds, without all the negativities.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Where do I find a good synthetic diamond?

Amy B asked:


I am not impressed with Moissanite. I want that glimmer of a diamond without the blood or the price that goes with a real one. I want something that will last and look good in the meantime. Are there any retail stores that sell high quality jewelry with these “simulants?”

go_surangasa asked:


the standard enthalpy of formation of diamond is approximately round up 2 kilojules for a mole since them standard conditions are used to calculate them values does it mean that I will get diamond from graphite if I HEAT is appropriately and how is that done to get the better allotrope by heating or if it is not the way cu all how many ways else is synthetic diamonds are made.

Long story short, accusations are levelled at me for having diverse sexual encounters with many ladies (i’ve never heard of/seen) in allsorts of wierd places/times fro the last three months, and the way I realised is through my g/f. Stinks and shes so heart broke, everywhere she goes i.e. shop, they telling her in one way or another and looking at her strangely etc. Even my parents/ relatives are saying this!
Would taking her on a vacation to Italy and buying her some diamonds settle her faith/ trust back into me and rid/displace these absurdities/slanders? Im not no whore, Im a commited guy, innocent of this libell, though nobody believes me…
Any advice? ladies are probably more suited to this, but hey its open to all!
Oh btw you dont know me ppl, IM NOT LYING. I never DID anything. It is some conspiracy with me since my younger days, and being wealthy (as ppl say) doesnt HELP!! I’ve talked, its everywhere all the time. Parents are just parrotting what anyone is saying. These Other ladies are after me fro sex etc and other guys after my g/f thats IT! So im left in a puddle.

It is a 1 carat diamond solitaire princess cut with some side stones and is very beautiful- He says he will tell her it is man-made- it cost him about $1500 bucks but would have cost about $6000 if it were not man-made. Pros and cons anyone?

What do you think of Diamond-Simulant Gemstones?

Nettie asked:


My boyfriend and I are getting engaged. We’ve been spending alot of time looking at rings and he is leaning more towards buying me a Diamond Simulant ring. Which is pretty much a man made diamond but it has all the characters of a real diamond. I know I shouldnt be picky but I dont want a fake ring. Do you think these diamonds are acceptable for engagement rings?

Antique ring - synthetic or real stones?

ColtsR#1 asked:


I inherited my grandmother’s ring, which is in the art deco style, with three diamonds in the middle (stacked - like a stoplight) and two tubular garnets on either side. I don’t think they’re rubies because they are deep red, but clear. The ring is from the 1920s, and 14K gold. A dept. store jeweler once told me the stones were synthetic because he could see tiny bubbles. Is he right?
