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.

1 Carat Moissanite Solitaire Ring | 6-Prong Silver

About This Product

A solitaire engagement ring should put the stone first, and this one does exactly that. A single round brilliant-cut moissanite sits high in a six-prong head, lifted clear of the band so light enters from every angle and returns the fire and brilliance moissanite is known for. The centre stone is a 1 carat DEW moissanite, measuring 6.5mm across, graded DEF colourless and VVS clarity. With a refractive index of 2.65 (against 2.42 for a diamond) it throws noticeably more rainbow flash, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it is hard enough for daily wear. The six rounded prongs cradle the girdle securely while keeping the profile open; the band tapers slightly toward the shoulders, drawing the eye up to the stone and making the centre read larger on the finger. The setting is 925 sterling silver with a bright rhodium-style white finish that mirrors a platinum look. Styling tip: because the band is a clean, knife-edge taper with no side accents, this piece stacks cleanly with a plain or pavé wedding band and reads as a classic engagement solitaire rather than a fashion ring. Available in DEF white plus fancy Pink, Yellow, and Blue centre stones, and in nine ring sizes from 4.5 to 8.5. Specs: 1ct DEW (6.5mm) round brilliant moissanite | DEF colour | VVS clarity | RI 2.65 | 9.25 Mohs | 6-prong solitaire | 925 sterling silver, white finish.
