Investing in Jewelry: Why High-Quality Moissanite Is a Smart Luxury Purchase

High-quality moissanite jewelry as a smart luxury investment choice

Looking to invest in beautiful jewelry that won't drain your savings account, but at the same time you don’t want to compromise on the quality? Well, don’t worry, you are not alone. A lot of people today are deciding to go for smarter luxury options such as high-quality lab grown and moissanite diamonds. 

At Golden Bird Jewel, we've seen this shift firsthand. Customers look for alternative options that will give them the same sparkle and elegance as a traditional diamond would. But they also want something ethical and sustainable. And we’re here for it!

We’ll take a look at why high-quality moissanite is actually a very smart luxury purchase for you!

Why Moissanite Is Actually a Great Investment

There are a lot of reasons as to why we love moissanite. It’s tough, gorgeous, and comparatively affordable. It can also be worn regularly without showing too much drama.

The best part? It looks just like a diamond to most people, but costs a fraction of the price.

We use moissanite as center stones in many of our most popular pieces. Our Solitaire Rings with moissanite are absolutely stunning – clean, classic, and timeless. 

Halo Rings are another popular option. These have smaller stones surrounding the center moissanite giving it a bigger and more brilliant look and feel.

Understanding Lab Grown Diamonds 

Now that we understand about mossanite, let’s briefly discuss lab grown diamonds. These are not fake diamonds. They are real diamonds that are grown in a lab instead of being mined from the earth’s surface. They have the same chemical structure, same hardness, same sparkle.

The only difference? They're better for the environment and your wallet. No mining means less environmental impact, and the savings are significant.

We use lab-grown diamonds in our Three Stone Rings, where you get maximum impact with three gorgeous stones. Our Accent Rings feature lab-grown diamonds as side stones, and the Vintage Rings collection showcases these stones in classic, timeless settings.

Wedding Bands That Work Perfectly with Moissanite

You need an engagement ring that goes perfectly well with your wedding band! The good news? Moissanite pairs beautifully with any band style.

Our Bezel Set Bands offer a modern, secure setting that protects the stones. You can also look at Channel Set Bands that will give you a constant sparkle, as you will see stones set in the band itself. 

If you are looking for something more delicate, then you can check out Dainty Bands. They are perfect for stacking rings or you can even wear them separately. And for a more impact on your wedding band, our Eternity Bands are a good option too. They have stones set all around the band.

All of these styles go well with any type of stone - whether you want to choose moissanite or lab grown diamonds.

Beyond Engagement Rings: Moissanite in Everyday Jewelry 

Everyday moissanite jewelry styles beyond traditional engagement rings

Here's something we always tell our customers – moissanite isn't just for engagement rings. It's perfect for everyday jewelry that you'll actually wear.

Our Studs and Earrings with moissanite are incredibly popular because they give you that diamond look for special occasions and daily wear. The bracelets are elegant enough for work but sparkly enough for dinner out. And our Pendants make beautiful gifts that won't break the bank.

Don't forget about Men's Jewelry either. They have started becoming extremely popular these days. There are more and more requests for men's pieces with lab grown diamonds and moissanite accents. They are not too flashy, and look really sophisticated.

Loose Stones: Your Custom Jewelry Starting Point

Want something completely unique? Start with loose stones. We carry both lab grown diamonds and moissanites in various cuts and sizes.

Our Ready to Dispatch stones are perfect if you're in a hurry. The Brilliant Cut is the classic round shape that maximizes sparkle. For something with vintage appeal, try our Old Cut stones. The Step Cut offers a more geometric, elegant look. And if you're making earrings, our Matching Pairs ensure perfect symmetry.

These loose stones are ideal for creating custom engagement rings or upgrading existing pieces.

Is Jewelry Really an investment?

Let's get real about this. Most jewelry you buy will not give you money like you would get in stocks or real estate. But they are priceless. You will enjoy wearing the pieces as they are important moments in your life that will be marked through this, and on top of that they hold a lot of sentimental value that are priceless. 

They will hold more value in your life than money. And these days you will see a lot of people investing in lab grown and moissanite diamonds for the same reason.
