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.

0.50ct 6-Prong Moissanite Solitaire Ring

About This Product

A single round-brilliant moissanite, raised in a six-prong basket above a tapering polished band, anchors this 0.50ct DEW solitaire (about 5mm across). The extra pair of prongs over a standard four-claw head wraps more metal around the girdle, so the stone sits higher and catches light from more angles without crowding the table. That fire is measurable: moissanite's refractive index of 2.65 outpaces a diamond's 2.42, returning more rainbow flashes across a room. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off the daily knocks that would scuff softer simulants, which is what makes a clean solitaire like this realistic for everyday wear rather than the jewelry box. The center is graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity, set in 925 sterling silver with a bright rhodium-style white finish that keeps the focus on the stone. Beyond the classic colorless white, the same head is offered in pink, golden-yellow, and blue moissanite for anyone who wants the solitaire shape without the expected look. Stone: Moissanite (lab-grown) | Cut: Round Brilliant | Size: 0.50ct DEW (~5mm) | Color: DEF colorless | Clarity: VVS | Metal: 925 Sterling Silver | Setting: Six-Prong Solitaire Styling note: a six-prong head reads slightly more delicate than a four-prong because the claws are thinner and spaced closer, so this wears well as a slim stacker beside a plain band or wedding ring. Wipe with a soft cloth and warm water; avoid lotions pooling under the basket, which is the usual culprit behind a dull solitaire. A lab-grown center makes it an easy promise, anniversary, or just-because gift.
