My first "lab created" diamond. I also have a moissanite ring. If you are familiar with moissanites, you will see the identical visual properties in the "lab created" stone and in the moissanite stone. So, essentially, this "lab created" diamond is a moissanite. I love my moissanite ring, but I expected this ring to look more like a diamond than it actually does. It is still beautiful, just a little disappointing.
