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.

Round Solitaire Moissanite Ring | 0.5ct DEW Silver

About This Product

Build your engagement set around a stone that reads brighter than a diamond: this round-brilliant moissanite sits in a six-prong head with a 2.65 refractive index, well above a diamond's 2.42, so it throws more fire under everyday light. The center is a 0.5ct DEW stone measuring 5mm across, cut in the classic round brilliant and rated DEF colorless with VVS clarity — the same grading language used for fine white diamonds, with no inclusions visible at arm's length. The setting is 925 sterling silver finished in rhodium-style white plating for a bright, platinum-look surface that resists tarnish. Six claw prongs lift the stone clear of the finger, and the band tapers from the shoulders down toward a slim 1.8mm profile, so the gem looks larger relative to the metal. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale, moissanite sits just below sapphire and is built for daily wear without chipping or clouding. Styling note: a six-prong round solitaire is the most stackable engagement silhouette there is — the raised head clears a flush wedding band, and the plain polished shank keeps a pavé or eternity band from competing for attention. Choose the White stone for a true diamond look, or Pink, Blue, or Yellow for a colored center that still reads as a single classic solitaire. Specs: 925 sterling silver, rhodium-style white plating; 0.5ct DEW round moissanite (5mm), DEF color, VVS clarity, RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs; six-prong setting; sizes 4.5–8.5; stone colors White, Pink, Blue, Yellow.
