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.

925 Silver Moissanite Solitaire Ring | 0.5ct DEW Round

About This Product

A round-brilliant moissanite solitaire set in rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver, built for daily wear that still reads as a fine-jewelry piece. The single 0.5ct DEW stone (5mm) sits in a four-prong head with an open, tension-style gallery, so light enters from the sides as well as the table for fuller return. Why it sparkles harder than the price suggests: moissanite carries a 2.65 refractive index against a diamond’s 2.42, so the round cut throws noticeably more fire than an equivalent diamond. The stone is graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity — eye-clean and bright-white in the photo, with no visible inclusions or warm tint — and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off the surface scratches that dull softer simulants like cubic zirconia over years of wear. Expert take: the tapered, knife-edge band narrows toward a cathedral-style shoulder, which visually lifts the 5mm center stone and makes it look larger on a slim finger than its carat weight implies. The low four-prong seat keeps the profile close to the hand, so it slides under gloves and stacks cleanly with a plain wedding band — a practical everyday solitaire rather than a tall, snag-prone cocktail setting. Choose the white stone for a true colorless-diamond look, or pink, golden-yellow, or blue if you want a colored center stone instead. Sized 4.5 through 8.5 (US) in half-size increments. A versatile promise, engagement, or right-hand ring that survives real life without the diamond price tag. Spec: 0.5ct DEW (5mm) round moissanite · DEF color · VVS clarity · RI 2.65 · 9.25 Mohs · rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver · four-prong solitaire.
