A Moissanite Asscher Cut quote is five lines stacked: material, stone, labour, plating and overhead. The reason two factories quote USD 38 and USD 62 for what looks the same piece is that one line is missing, or quietly thinner.
The five lines on a Moissanite Asscher Cut quote
Material is the 925 silver or K gold by weight. Stone is the moissanite or lab diamond by carat and grade. Labour is casting, setting, polishing and finishing. Plating is the rhodium or palladium flash by micron. Overhead is CAD, mould, QC and pack.
| Line | What it covers | Watch out |
|---|---|---|
| Material | Silver/gold by weight | Fixed price hides rate moves |
| Stone | Moissanite/lab diamond grade | Grade not written |
| Labour | Cast, set, polish, finish | Complexity not itemised |
| Plating | Rhodium/palladium micron | Thinner flash tarnishes |
| Overhead | CAD, mould, QC, pack | Mould charged twice |
When a Moissanite Asscher Cut quote arrives as one number, you cannot negotiate any line, cannot compare two factories honestly, and cannot see where the discount is coming from.
Material prices move. A Moissanite Asscher Cut quote held for three months is not a valid quote. Ask for a quote valid for thirty days, with the silver rate locked on the PO date.
Stone grade is where the five-line quote hides. A one-grade drop in colour or clarity saves the factory 15 percent and changes the piece under light. Write the grade on the PO.
Plating is not a uniform line. A Moissanite Asscher Cut piece with 0.10 micron plate tarnishes in months; 0.20 micron lasts a year. The micron difference costs USD 0.30 a piece and saves a return.
Overhead looks small until you total it. CAD, mould, QC, pack and freight add 12 to 18 percent to the piece price. Buyers who negotiate only the material line miss the biggest lever.
What moves each line on Moissanite Asscher Cut
Material moves with the silver and gold price. Ask for material as a rate plus weight, not a fixed piece price. Stone moves with colour and clarity; a one-grade drop on a Moissanite Asscher Cut stone cuts the line but the piece looks different under light.
Labour moves with design complexity. A prong-set band costs less than a pavé halo. Plating moves with micron; 0.20 micron is standard, 0.03 micron tarnishes in six weeks. Overhead is one-time CAD and mould per design.
Reorders should not repeat the mould fee. When the same Moissanite Asscher Cut design ships twice, the mould is paid. A quote that charges it again is a quote to renegotiate, not a quote to accept.
Material prices move. A Moissanite Asscher Cut quote held for three months is not a valid quote. Ask for a quote valid for thirty days, with the silver rate locked on the PO date.
Stone grade is where the five-line quote hides. A one-grade drop in colour or clarity saves the factory 15 percent and changes the piece under light. Write the grade on the PO.
Plating is not a uniform line. A Moissanite Asscher Cut piece with 0.10 micron plate tarnishes in months; 0.20 micron lasts a year. The micron difference costs USD 0.30 a piece and saves a return.
The landed cost math for Moissanite Asscher Cut
Work backwards from your retail. If your channel prices Moissanite Asscher Cut at USD X retail, wholesale piece price is roughly X divided by 2.4. Build the five lines inside that number. If the lines add to more than X divided by 2.4, do not accept a thinner plate or softer stone to close it.
The cheap quote looks good on day one. On day ninety, the plating has worn, the stone grade is not what the sample showed, and the reorder is at the real price.
Overhead looks small until you total it. CAD, mould, QC, pack and freight add 12 to 18 percent to the piece price. Buyers who negotiate only the material line miss the biggest lever.
Reorders should not repeat the mould fee. When the same Moissanite Asscher Cut design ships twice, the mould is paid. A quote that charges it again is a quote to renegotiate, not a quote to accept.
Material prices move. A Moissanite Asscher Cut quote held for three months is not a valid quote. Ask for a quote valid for thirty days, with the silver rate locked on the PO date.
Stone grade is where the five-line quote hides. A one-grade drop in colour or clarity saves the factory 15 percent and changes the piece under light. Write the grade on the PO.
Hidden costs on a Moissanite Asscher Cut order
Three hidden costs. First, the mould fee charged again on reorder of the same Moissanite Asscher Cut design. Second, the plating line dropped from the quote. Third, the stone grade not specified, so bulk ships lower than sample.
Ask for the five lines in writing. A factory that shows you the five lines is the one you can renegotiate next season; a factory that quotes one mystery number is betting you will not compare.
Plating is not a uniform line. A Moissanite Asscher Cut piece with 0.10 micron plate tarnishes in months; 0.20 micron lasts a year. The micron difference costs USD 0.30 a piece and saves a return.

Where a Moissanite Asscher Cut quote hides
The five-line quote hides three things. Stone grade not written, plating micron not written, mould fee charged again. Buyers who ask for the lines in writing close all three before the deposit.
A USD 38 quote is not cheaper than a USD 45 quote if the USD 38 piece tarnishes in six months. The landed cost after a reorder is the real price.
