ORIGIN DISCLOSURE

Luminaqua gemstones are lab-grown and not mined. They carry the same chemical, physical, and optical properties as their natural counterparts but are grown in controlled laboratory environments. We use terms like “lab-grown,” “lab-created,” or “man-made” to represent their nature accurately.

CARAT WEIGHT DISCLAIMER

Each gemstone possesses unique characteristics, making them distinct. Carat weights can fluctuate, potentially exceeding or falling short of the stated weight, influenced by the gem’s depth. These subtle variations contribute to the individuality and allure of each gemstone.

GEMSTONE SHAPE DISCLAIMER

Our hand-cut gems may exhibit slight variations in shape, highlighting the artisanal nature of the cutting process. These subtle differences contribute to the individual character of each stone we offer. All our gemstones’ shapes reflect the meticulous artistry behind their creation.

FACET VARIATION DISCLAIMER

Each gemstone is a unique work of art, and slight variations in facet count may occur due to the intricate nature of hand-cutting. Regardless of the number of facets, all Luminaqua gemstones are considered properly-faceted and of the highest quality cutting grade.

COLOR DISCLAIMER

Despite every effort to accurately depict our gemstones’ colors, actual colors may vary due to your monitor settings, graphics card, and browser settings. By purchasing from Luminaqua, you acknowledge that there may be variations between the actual color and the representation on our website.

Converting millimeters (mm) to Diamond Equivalent Weight (DEW) allows for straightforward comparison between moissanite and diamonds, with DEW serving as the standard for expressing moissanite’s carat weight. Traditionally, gemstones are measured using the carat (ct) weight, where 1.00 carat equals 0.200 grams or 1/5 gram. Moissanite gemstones share identical dimensions in millimeters with diamonds but are marginally lighter due to their specific gravity of 3.22 grams per cubic centimeter.

This difference makes ordering moissanite gemstones by millimeter size advantageous for fitting them into available settings. For example, a 6.50mm round brilliant cut diamond weighs 1.00ct. In comparison, a moissanite of equal dimensions (6.50mm) will have an actual carat weight of approximately 0.88ct or 1.00ct (DEW). The size charts below will help you understand the dimensions of different cuts of moissanite gemstones.
