Here are reasons why these wholesale fashion rings are a great alternative to pricey diamond engagement rings.
Consumer behavior has been shaped and transformed by the pandemic. Shopping today is more convenient and health- and wellness-oriented, and customers now are looking for affordable alternatives to products they are used to buying. One product, in particular, is jewelry.
Because most consumers are now more practical with buying their needs and wants as an effect of the health crisis, many now consider less expensive alternatives to diamond engagement rings. An engagement ring that costs hundreds or thousands of dollars isn't just practical. Thankfully, there are Moissanite engagement rings, and they are one of the best diamond ring alternatives today.
Moissanites are found in some meteorites and are initially formed in stardust. They are naturally occurring silicon carbide and are named after Ferdinand Frederick Henri Moissan, a French chemist who discovered the crystal in the Canyon Diablo meteorite. Moissanites are a near colorless stone that looks pretty much like a diamond, making them an excellent alternative to this expensive crystal.
Aside from the obvious benefit of more affordable costs, selling Moissanite engagement rings can give your jewelry business high returns. Here are the top three reasons to consider investing in these wholesale fashion rings with these crystals today:
- Moissanite engagement rings can withstand wear and tear.
- Engagement rings with moissanite accents provide better brilliance and shine.
- These rings are ideal for environmentally conscious customers.
#1 Moissanite engagement rings can withstand wear and tear.
On the Mohs hardness scale, the diamond is a 10, and as we know, means that this crystal is incredibly hard and durable. Moissanites come close at 9.25, which means they are almost quite as hard as diamonds but for a lower cost. These engagement rings can be worn every day because they are durable enough. Moissanite crystals will not get scratched or chipped easily.
#2 Engagement rings with moissanite accents provide better brilliance and shine.
The brilliance meter of crystals depends on how a particular stone reflects white light. The refractive scale of Moissanites is 2.65, and diamonds are 2.42. This means that Moissanites have more “fire” than diamonds and give off more sparkles. They remain sparkly even in a dimmed area, making them the perfect jewelry for evening wear. A Moissanite engagement ring would also be very noticeable during an evening wedding, making it the talk of the event.
#3 These rings are ideal for environmentally conscious customers.
Sustainability is one of the qualities consumers today look for in a brand. In fact, Statista’s survey in June 2022 found that 47 percent of U.S. respondents said they wanted to see more brands that support environmental issues and sustainability publicly. Thankfully, Moissanite crystals are ethically made. Most of these stones are grown in labs because of their incredible rarity, which means there is no need to mine them. However, it is important to note that lab-created Moissanites are not fake Moissanites as they have the same chemical properties. They are just grown ethically in a different place.
