slammerkin Ashaholic Registered: 04/02/12 Posts: 232	Originally Posted By: Bean66 I know - I tried to have a conversation with my jeweler and was talking to him about colored moissy and he said that the colors were all coatings and they wear off. I pointed out to him that C&C actually grows them is colors and he said that must be new! I responded, "really...new a few years ago...maybe.." He said they don't deal with moissy because it's so ugly and I asked him last time he saw one. The answer was over 12 years ago! I love the way it looks and as a vegan who also loves the environment, I love that no one was harmed and no "shady" middle broker (XXBeer, anyone!) was involved. Wait, I thought all colored Moissanite was indeed done by coating. Do they actually grow some colors?

The greens are still pretty available I believe, at least the light green, but the blue is quite limited and only available from that one ebay seller as far I know. _________________________ Joseph Schubach Jewelers

It is true that it was an accident. What I learned a little while ago is that although they do know what impurities caused it, to do it again would be a very costly experiment (especially since C&C doesn't grown the rough, CREE does). _________________________ http://www.MoissaniteCo.com http://www.AshaDiamonds.com
