Spend less on moissanite wedding jewelry created by Charles & Colvard

Charles & Colvard, Ltd., the sole source of moissanite – a created jewel available for use in fine jewelry – offers the ideal gift for pronouncing your love this Valentine’s Day.

According to Maritz Ameripoll (2000) approximately 74% of Americans celebrate Valentine’s Day, and the Jewelry Information Center, a non-profit trade association based in New York City, reports Valentine’s Day is the second largest jewelry-giving occasion of the year (2002).

Created moissanite is a near colorless jewel with more fire and brilliance than fine diamond, and nearly as hard but retailing at a fraction of the cost. As moissanite is created, not mined, it is a socially responsible jewel and a great way to express one’s love for that special someone.

Bradley Whitford, 2001 Emmy winner for NBC’s The West Wing recently gave his wife, Jane Kaczmarek, of Fox’s Malcom in the Middle created moissanite earrings. Happy with her gift, she would now recommend moissanite to her friends.

Blair Underwood (L.A Law and City of Angles) presented his wife Desiree with created moissanite earrings for her birthday this month. Underwood reported that when his wife saw the earrings she said she loved them and thought they were absolutely beautiful. Underwood also commented, I gave my wife [Desiree] diamond earrings as a wedding gift and she thought her new moissanite earrings were as beautiful – if not more so – and that goes a long way!

Other celebrities have also discovered the brilliance and beauty of moissanite. Hip-hop powerhouse Destiny’s Child, actors Brooke Shields, Tiffani Thiessen, Holly Robinson Peete, Vivica A. Fox, Supermodel Niki Taylor and soccer legend Mia Hamm all wear moissanite jewelry. Additionally, Eric McCormack wore moissanite cufflinks when he accepted his 2001 Emmy for his performance in Will&Grace.

Valentine’s Day is also a prime time to pop the question. With Reuters news service reporting an increase in the number of engagements following September 11th, moissanite is the ideal choice for couples affected by the economy, or who wish to spend less on wedding jewelry.

Bob Thomas, Charles & Colvard’s president, chairman and CEO commented, This Valentine’s Day is about showing loved ones how much they matter. Created moissanite offers consumers a gift of astonishing value and unparalled brilliance and fire. Moissanite outshines all other jewels on the market today.
