Moissanite Certification: What Does It Mean for Quality?
Not all Moissanite is created equal. While this lab grown gemstone is prized for its fire, brilliance, and ethical sourcing, certification and grading still play a critical role in ensuring quality and beauty — especially when you’re shopping for heirloom jewelry. Here’s everything you need to know about Moissanite certification and why it matters. You can also explore the differences in sparkle in Why Moissanite Sparkles More Than Diamonds.
💎 What Is Moissanite Certification?
Moissanite certification is an official document that verifies the gemstone’s specifications, including its cut, color, clarity, carat weight, and polish. At Jewel Eternal, we only use certified Moissanite graded for D Color and VVS1 clarity, meaning each stone meets the highest visual and structural standards.

📊 Moissanite vs. Diamond Grading
While diamonds are graded by independent gemological labs like GIA, Moissanite grading is based on a similar scale but tailored to its unique structure. Moissanite’s colorless range (D–F) mimics the highest-quality diamonds, while VVS1 clarity ensures near-flawless sparkle with minimal internal imperfections. For a full breakdown, see Moissanite vs Diamond: The Ultimate Guide.
| Grading Factor | Moissanite (Jewel Eternal) | Diamond (Typical GIA) |
|---|---|---|
| Color | D (Colorless) | D–Z scale |
| Clarity | VVS1 (Very Very Slightly Included) | IF to I3 |
| Cut | Ideal / Excellent | Poor to Excellent |
