What Is The Difference Between Moissanite Hardness and Diamond Hardness? Moissanite is a relatively new gemstone, only being discovered in the late 1800s by French scientist Henri Moissan. It is composed of silicon carbide and is known for its high brilliance and fire. Moissanite is also extremely hard, ranking 9.25 on the Mohs scale of hardness. This makes it one of the hardest known materials on Earth. Diamonds, on the other hand, have been used for centuries as a symbol of love and affection. They are also the hardest known naturally occurring material, ranking 10 on the Mohs scale. Moissanite is an extremely hard gemstone, but can still develop a light haze after a significant period of time. This hazing is usually caused by dirt or debris becoming trapped in the tiny crevices on the surface of the stone, and is not a sign that the stone is losing its brilliance. This is almost identical to what causes diamond cloudiness. The best way to clean a Moissanite stone is with a soft, lint-free cloth and a mild soap or jewelry cleaner. Be sure to rinse the stone thoroughly after cleaning to remove any soap residue. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasives on your Moissanite, as these can damage the stone.
