Charles & Colvard

Charles & Colvard introduced moissanite to the jewellery market in the 1990s and remains the brand most gemologists reference when comparing the stone to diamond. Their Forever One moissanite is grown and graded in the USA, rated D-E-F colourless, and carries a limited lifetime warranty against colour change or cloudiness.

The site lets you shop finished rings or build your own by pairing a loose Forever One stone with a setting. Styles run from classic six-prong solitaires to pavé halos and east-west arrangements. International shipping covers Switzerland, with express delivery options and full insurance. If you want the name that defined the category, this is where the stone originated.
