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.

Snowflake Moissanite Ring | 1ct Twisted Pavé Silver

About This Product

Two details carry this ring: a six-prong snowflake head and a bypass band that twists pavé accents up to the center stone. The round brilliant moissanite sits at 1ct DEW (around 6.5mm), and with a 2.65 refractive index against a diamond's 2.42 it returns more light and more colored fire than a diamond of the same diameter. Graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity, the center stays bright white face-up, and a 9.25 Mohs hardness means the surface resists the scratches that dull softer stones over a few seasons of wear. Spec block: - Stone: Moissanite, lab-grown - Cut: Round brilliant - Size: 1ct DEW (~6.5mm) - Color: DEF colorless (White) - Clarity: VVS - Metal: 925 sterling silver - Setting: Six-prong snowflake head with twisted pavé bypass band The twisted shoulders are set with small round accents that lead the eye inward, so the ring looks more involved than a plain solitaire while still sitting low and comfortable. It works as a standalone statement piece or a dressed-up everyday ring, and the bypass curve nestles against a contour band more naturally than a straight shank would. Pick the white setting for a frost-clear look, or shift to pink, yellow, or blue when you want a colored accent. Styling note: because the snowflake prongs and the pavé both hold light, keep them clean, a soft brush under warm water once a week clears the oils that quietly flatten any micro-set piece, and the sparkle comes right back.
