A Comparison of Cultivated Diamonds (moissanite)
RUSSIAN BRILLIANTS (fake diamond)
Russian scientists have taken a page from Mother Nature's achievement by replicating a gem quality diamond. Russian Brilliants™ is laboratory grown. It was originally developed for use in the Russian satellite optics program. These Cultivated Diamonds are hand-cut and come in different shapes and sizes. With their brilliance and fire they possess many of the same characteristics and optical properties of a natural diamond. They are very hard and will cut glass! Moissanite Diamond

Personal I.D. Inscription Available. Inscribed by major lab and can be seen under 10X magnification.

Some jewelers have difficulty distinguishing between Russian Brilliants™ and a natural diamond. The eye appeal is equivalent to the world's finest D-E color, flawless diamond. Beautifully hand-cut, Russian Brilliants™ is convincingly the closest clone to a natural diamond and far superior to all other fake diamonds. The appearance of Russian Brilliants™ will last forever.

STANDARD CUBIC ZIRCONIA
At times man-made gems are more beautiful (rainbow affect) than the natural diamonds they imitate. CZ will take on a pale grayish tone when exposed to sunlight over a period of time. This does not happen with Russian Brilliants™. Unlike a naturally formed diamond, CZ components are purer and the molecules gather in ideal conditions. Couple this with an unsophisticated machine cut manufacturing process and you arrive at the standard cubic zirconia stone.

MOISSANITE
Moissanite, although relatively new, does resemble a diamond. It usually has a yellowish tint. It has a silicon carbide composition. Upon close examination, moissanite is usually identifiable. This is because silicon carbide, in the manufacturing process becomes doubly refractive. The double refractive index diminishes the illusion of being a natural diamond. The cost of this stone is much higher than other Moissanite Jewelrys. Hadar will resell our client's old moissanite on consignment. (moissanite)
