How Are Moissanite’s Made?
Natural Moissanite is originally a gemstone that came from a meteor originally found in 1893. Since then using high tech lab equipment we have been able to reproduce the chemical structure of this beautiful gemstone. Its made using silicon and carbon with both heat and pressure in a chamber to produce a man made form of silicon carbide which is then faceted and polished to make the gemstone we see and know today as Moissanite.
