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.

8mm Moissanite Cuban Link Chain Necklace | Iced-Out Silver

About This Product

This 8mm Miami Cuban link necklace turns a streetwear staple into a precision-set statement piece, with every link fully iced in round moissanite that throws fire from any angle. The prong-set pavé runs the full length of the chain and continues across the box clasp, so the lock disappears into the design instead of breaking the line of stones. Each stone is DEF colorless, VVS clarity moissanite with a 2.65 refractive index versus a diamond's 2.42, which is why this chain reads brighter under direct light than a plain polished link. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale the stones resist the scuffs and edge-wear an everyday chain takes. The links are built on 925 sterling silver finished in rhodium plating for a cool bright-white tone that won't yellow or tarnish with regular wear, and the two-row stone face packs noticeably more set stones per inch than a single-row design. Styling note: 8mm is the sweet-spot width for a Cuban chain worn solo at 18 to 20 inches on an open collar, or stacked under a pendant at 22 to 26 inches without the two pieces competing. The double-row face gives it more visual weight than a single-row tennis chain while the articulated links stay flexible and comfortable against the neck. Six lengths from 16 to 26 inches cover everything from a choker-close fit to a full chest-length drop, so you can size it to your frame and layering plans. Specs: 8mm width | round prong-set moissanite | DEF color | VVS clarity | RI 2.65 | 9.25 Mohs | 925 sterling silver, rhodium-plated | lengths 16–26 in
