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 Moissanite Solitaire Ring | 925 Silver Pave Band

About This Product

Set a brilliant round-cut moissanite at the center of a pave-lined band that throws light from every angle. This solitaire pairs a 1ct DEW (6.5mm) round brilliant moissanite with two rows of pave accent stones running down each shoulder, lifted on a six-prong head above a small star-shaped gallery that frames the basket. The center stone is DEF colorless with VVS clarity, cut to a refractive index of 2.65 versus a mined diamond's 2.42, so it returns more fire than a comparable diamond. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it resists everyday scratching, and the rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver setting holds a bright white finish that reads platinum-like in photos. The pave shoulders add measurable sparkle without widening the profile, so the ring still sits flush under a stacked wedding band. Stylist take: the star gallery and tapered pave shoulders make this a stronger everyday solitaire than a plain knife-edge band. It photographs larger than its 6.5mm center because the shoulder stones extend the line of light up the finger, giving a fuller face-up footprint than a bare solitaire of the same center weight. The slim shank tapers toward the back so it nests cleanly against a wedding band without gapping. Round brilliant in a six-prong head is the most secure mainstream setting, well suited to daily wear, and the rhodium plating can be refreshed over time to keep the white finish bright. The center stone is fixed white; choose your ring size from the available US sizes 4.5 through 8.5.
