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 Halo Pendant Necklace, Silver

About This Product

Wear one bright point of light that holds its center-stage sparkle from desk to dinner. The round brilliant-cut moissanite measures 6.5mm (1ct DEW) and sits in a secure four-prong solitaire setting, ringed by a pave halo of accent stones set into an ornate, vintage-inspired scalloped frame with softly cut corners. Moissanite earns the spotlight on its own merits: a 2.65 refractive index outsparkles a diamond’s 2.42, so the facets throw more fire and brilliance under any light. The center stone is graded DEF colorless and VVS clarity, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off the daily knocks that scratch softer stones. The frame and chain are 925 sterling silver finished in white gold plating for a bright, rhodium-like white that resists tarnish. Styling note: the scalloped halo reads as quiet Art Deco rather than a plain solitaire, so it layers beautifully over a high-neckline or anchors a single-pendant look at the collarbone. The pendant sits inline on a fine cable chain with a spring-ring clasp, keeping it centered without flipping over. The 6.5mm face is large enough to register across a room yet light enough for all-day wear, which makes it an easy birthday or anniversary gift that works on its own or as the base of a layered stack of necklaces. Specs: 1ct DEW (6.5mm) round brilliant moissanite · DEF colorless · VVS clarity · RI 2.65 · 9.25 Mohs · pave halo · 925 sterling silver, white gold plated · cable chain, spring-ring clasp.
