I am also convinced that diamonds are a scam. If you like the stone and think it is worth it, by all means, go ahead and buy it. I fucking love shiny things too. But really? Have you seen the price for a tiny 1 karat stone on a ring? That is ridiculous, there is no way in hell those stones are rare enough or warrant that kind of price, and even if the cutting process was the reason for the price ( as if it is not completely fucking automated by now). Fuck the diamond industry.
Also, all the violence involved in the industry. I prefer my sparkly shit to involve less blood.
It's definitely a scam, because they gained their value through manipulation as well as artificial and controlled rarity.
Moissanite is the same, fraction of the price. DeBeers can suck it
The reflections that moissanite makes are a lot more colorful. I prefer that, but some people may prefer the more subdued colors of diamonds. Lab grown diamonds are similarly priced, so just choose which one you prefer.
Either way, you're getting something lab grown. Almost all moissanite is synthetic because the natural stuff is far rarer than diamond. I don't know why it matters if it's formed naturally or made in a lab anyway (aside from avoiding the blood diamond problem obviously). Is it because we're playing god with diamonds?
