Dang a lot of diamond haters in the comments! I would never buy a mined diamond for the ethical concerns but I think lab grown diamonds are worth the price. Moissanite is really pretty but it does throw more colors which may not be to everyone's taste. Diamonds have a really clean white sparkle. And the price difference between the two is not as big as it used to be apparently.

To me diamond looks like a piece of glass. Sure it's more durable but I think the existence of modern glass ruined any visual uniqueness diamond had.

Then the things like Swarovski crystals just entirely destroyed any remaining appeal.
