Is moissanite a real diamond?

Moissanite is not a diamond—it's a distinct gemstone with its own unique properties. Originally discovered in a meteor crater in 1893, today's moissanite is lab-created. It actually has more brilliance and fire than diamonds due to its higher refractive index (2.65 vs 2.42), while being nearly as hard (9.25 vs 10 on the Mohs scale).

Will moissanite pass a diamond tester?

Standard diamond testers measure thermal conductivity, and moissanite often passes these tests because both stones conduct heat similarly. Advanced testers that measure electrical conductivity can distinguish between them. We believe in transparency—our moissanite is beautiful in its own right.

Does moissanite get cloudy over time?

No, moissanite does not get cloudy, lose its sparkle, or change color over time. It's a stable, durable gemstone that maintains its brilliance for a lifetime with proper care. Unlike some simulants, moissanite is highly resistant to scratching, heat, and everyday chemicals.

Can I wear moissanite jewelry every day?

Absolutely! With a hardness of 9.25 on the Mohs scale (second only to diamond), moissanite is extremely durable and perfect for everyday wear, including engagement rings. We recommend removing jewelry during activities involving harsh chemicals or extreme impact.

What is your return policy?

We offer a 90-day worry-free return policy. If you're not 100% satisfied with your purchase, you can return it within 90 days for a full refund. All our moissanite jewelry also comes with a lifetime warranty covering manufacturing defects and stone clouding.

1ct Round Moissanite Solitaire Ring | 6.5mm DEF VVS

About This Product

This 6.5mm round brilliant moissanite (1ct DEW) sits in a six-prong head that lifts the stone clear of the finger so light enters from every angle. With a refractive index of 2.65 versus a diamond's 2.42, it returns measurably more fire, and DEF colorless grading keeps the face ice-white under any lighting rather than warm or tinted. Look closely and the band is anything but plain: each shoulder carries a graduated pavé row of accent stones that runs from the center head down toward a smooth, rounded back, so the sparkle continues around the finger while the underside stays comfortable for daily wear. The center stone is VVS clarity, eye-clean with no visible inclusions, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off the scratches that quickly cloud softer simulants like cubic zirconia (8.5). Stylist's note: a six-prong head reads slightly more vintage and holds the stone more securely than a four-prong, and the pavé shoulders visually widen the band, so this wears larger than its slim shank suggests. It pairs cleanly with a plain wedding band and photographs brilliantly for proposals. The setting is rhodium-finished 925 sterling silver for a bright white-gold look without the white-gold price. Available in four center-stone tones: White, Pink, Golden Yellow, and Blue. The nickel-conscious 925 sterling silver suits most everyday wear and resists tarnish with normal care.
