3 Carat Moissanite Engagement Rings | Custom Handcrafted | Braverman Oren
How big is a 3 carat moissanite?
A 3 carat moissanite measures roughly 9.3–9.5mm across in a round cut, the same face-up size as a 3 carat diamond. Because moissanite is a touch lighter than diamond, we size it by millimeter so what you see on the hand matches a true 3 carat look.
How much does a 3 carat moissanite engagement ring cost?
Far less than its diamond equivalent. The stone itself is a small fraction of a comparable diamond, so most of your investment goes into the metal and the craftsmanship of the setting. We build each ring to order, so the final price depends on the metal and design you choose, I'm always happy to walk you through it.
Does a 3 carat moissanite look like a real diamond?
To the everyday eye, yes. A well-cut moissanite is bright, white, and full of life. Up close it shows a little more rainbow sparkle than a diamond, which many people love. At 3 carats that brilliance is genuinely striking.
What's the best setting for a 3 carat moissanite?
A stone this size deserves a setting that lets it breathe. Solitaires and hidden-halo designs keep all eyes on the stone, while a thin pavé band makes it look even larger. The right choice really comes down to your hand and your style.
Is moissanite a good choice for an engagement ring?
It's an excellent one. Moissanite is among the hardest gemstones after diamond (9.25 on the Mohs scale), so it holds up to a lifetime of daily wear. It's lab-created and conflict-free, and it lets you wear a larger stone on a comfortable budget.
