But jewelers are getting moissanite and think they are diamonds. They are downplaying it, but a show here in Canada, MarketPlace a couple weeks ago took a moissanite set in a ring and had it appraised. 8 out of 10 Jewelers thought it was a real diamond. It fooled the electronic diamond testers, as well as the expert eye.
