CZs were created to look like diamonds. Lab created diamonds are diamonds. But Moissanite was never created to look like diamonds b/c they are their own stone. They don't look like diamonds b/c they sparkle way more than diamonds.

If you can buy a lab-grown diamond at a reasonable price, why waste your money on a fake?

I remember the various colors of Diamonique......They were'nt necessarily meant to look 'real'......just beautiful, sparkly vibrant colors.

 

Bright pink, bright lime, bright yellow-gold, etc. 

Mostly solitaire, not a lot of tiny stones all around (halo).

 

I prefer solitaire styles. 

 

'Anyway', nice that Diamonique items (hopefully still) have a lifetime guarantee.  Nice, especially if one of those tiny stones falls off.  

 

 

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).
