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.

Sterling Silver Moissanite Bangle Bracelet 1.18ctw

About This Product

A slim, polished sterling silver bangle that wears like fine jewelry every day. A single channel-line of round brilliant moissanite runs across the front face, each stone roughly 2mm, totalling 1.18ctw DEW for a continuous ribbon of light without bulk. The stones are DEF colorless, VVS clarity, and cut to a 2.65 refractive index (diamond sits at 2.42), so they throw noticeably more fire than the cubic zirconia used in most silver bangles. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale they resist the scratches and clouding that dull softer simulants. The band is solid 925 sterling silver finished in rhodium plating, hand-stamped S925 on the inside, with a hinged clip closure that opens for easy on-and-off and snaps shut for a secure, slip-proof fit. Expert take: a single-row stone bangle is the most stackable shape we carry. The low profile lets it sit flush against a watch or other bangles without crowding, and the rhodium finish keeps it bright next to white gold pieces. Worn alone it reads as a quiet everyday sparkle; stacked two or three deep it becomes the statement. The hinged oval shape (180mm inner circumference) holds its position rather than spinning, so the stones stay face-up on the wrist. A precise, low-maintenance alternative to a diamond tennis bangle at a fraction of the cost, and an easy gift in a size that suits most wrists. Specs: 925 sterling silver, rhodium plated. Single row round brilliant moissanite, ~2mm each, 1.18ctw DEW total. DEF color, VVS clarity, RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs. Hinged clip closure, 180mm oval circumference.
