Moissanite costs one-tenth the price of a diamond. The changes between the two stones are subtle and can only be seen with a skilled eye. Moissanite is also more durable and does not turn yellowish after a certain amount of time, unlike other diamond replacements.
Moissanite companies are mostly engaged in the mining & exploration of the gemstone. However, in most cases, companies are engaged in the mining & exploration of coloured moissanite. Coloured moissanite is increasingly preferred throughout the world.
Companies implement different strategies to expand their brand portfolio such as M&A activity, joint ventures, the acquisition of new mines, development and expansion of the lifespan of old mines, listing of companies on the stock exchange, expanding into geographies, expansion of the companies’ businesses, expansion of the production capacity, etc.
From 2017 and 2022, worldwide demand for Moissanite increased at a CAGR of ~4.3%, with the United States, Japan, China, India, and the U.K. holding significant shares in the global market.
Rising disposable income, along with an increase in consumer preference for budget-friendly exquisite jewellery goods, is likely to boost worldwide market growth throughout the forecast period. Furthermore, increased consumer acceptance of moissanite as a gemstone equivalent to diamond is likely to boost market expansion.
The North American moissanite market is predicted to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period, followed by the European market.
Most synthetic diamonds, such as cubic zirconia, lose their sparkle after a certain length of time, unlike moissanite. As a result, consumer preference in Europe is turning toward the moissanite stone, which is likely to fuel market expansion throughout the region further during the projection period.
The emergence of specialty stores is one of the evolving formats in the retail industry, especially in developing countries. Today, customers are more inclined toward comfort and convenience shopping due to their hectic lifestyles and work schedules, and this is one of the reasons why specialty stores are gaining popularity.
In specialty stores, a variety of gems and jewelry are stocked under one roof, which provides a wide range of options for customers. All the key vendors in different markets, such as the U.S, the UK, China, India, Japan, and Italy, operate through specialty jewellery stores.
Consumers in emerging economies, such as Asia Pacific, are slowly drifting away from conventional unorganized jewelry and are inclined toward organized branded products to protect themselves from counterfeit products.
Moreover, organized sales are likely to increase due to change in the preferences of younger consumers following the introduction of hallmarking and certifications.
The global gemstones market is widely spread across the unorganized sector, as several miners and traders operate outside the formal sector as local contractors. The absence of appropriate environmental, social, and labor practices, and the continuing link between the gemstone business and organized crime has resulted in widespread internal conflict and corrupt regimes in certain countries.
Nigeria is one of the countries that has rich mines, owing to which there is abundant availability of precious and semiprecious stones, such as moissanite, sapphires, rubies, aquamarines, emeralds, tourmalines, topazes, garnets, amethysts, and zircons, among others, which are capable of fetching billions of dollars in the world market. Stakeholders from the mines and steel industry claim that Nigeria loses about US$ 3 Bn annually to the illegal exports of gemstones.

The high-end technological revolution powered by Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) hardware has revolutionized the industry to a significant extent.
Laser sintering, also known as Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), is a 3D printing technique that has taken jewelry designing to an entirely new level and has helped manufacturers design jewelry of unique designs and shapes. Increasing demand for jewelry that is produced using this technique is expected to drive the revenue growth of the gemstones market over the forecast period.
