Wow, that is one yummy moissy!
But I have to say, I have a 9mm enhanced RB moissanite, and it shows quite a bit less body color than this mira. I'm not sure what exactly is going on with yours, but it seems extremely colored, around an N-O in my opinion, while my enhanced would probably grade L-M on a bad day (I like the looks of yours more to be quite honest, though).
I actually really prefer the look of your moissy to the lighter colors in the asha & diamond..
I have a picture of my moissanite on a white piece of paper, and I would love to post it for comparison, but nobody has told me how to post pics despite my repeated promps for help..

Hey Kat! the easiest was to post pics that I found is to first uploaded the pics to photobucket. Under each pic there are codes.....select the bottom one for IMG and copy it. Paste right into your text reply here and it will show up in the reply. Hope that helps!!

It's beautiful. VERY creamy looking. Obviously that is not an H which Less said wasn't possible in larger moissy yet. I think it's very pretty but definitely more colored than your I stone.

Thanks to Diamondgirl3660 BeMy Valentine! I will open an account over at photobucket, since it seems pretty simple that way! Thanks again!

Yeah I'm still trying to decide if I like the color. It is graded as an I color by NAGL so I thought it would be more similar to my I diamond but again it could just be the size difference and that's why it's showing more body color?
I wanted to get it set in a really nice setting, jbeg or steven kirsch, something very quality but I'm torn about the color! It definitely shows no green though. I'll take more pics in other lighting!

I like it but you need to be happy about it!
It's definitely not an I though. And I don't know NAGL but as far as labs go GIA/AGS seem to be the only ones which supply accurate grading but I don't know if they would grade moissanite?

If I were you I would definitely keep it! It is such a beautiful warm color! It is what I would consider to be a very very light champagne. If I were in your shoes I would do something that utilizes the color. I saw a post on pricescope where a woman had a ring custom created in rose gold with a yellow diamond in the donut to exaggerate the color of her M (I believe) OMC. It is, to this day, one of my favorite pieces!
