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.

Cancer Zodiac Moissanite Necklace | 925 Silver Pave

About This Product

The Cancer glyph—that mirrored double-spiral that nods to the crab—is set into an open oval frame here, with pavé moissanite tracing both the surrounding ring and the curling sign inside it. It's a clean, balanced pendant that reads as zodiac jewelry up close and as quiet sparkle from across a room. Moissanite is what makes the small stones pull their weight: a refractive index of 2.65 against diamond's 2.42 gives each round cut more fire than the cubic-zirconia charms it sits beside, and 9.25 Mohs hardness keeps the pavé crisp on a piece worn daily. The stones are DEF colorless and VVS clarity, so the white fill stays bright against polished 925 sterling silver. A rounded bail and fine cable chain keep it comfortable and easy to layer. Spec block: - Stone: Moissanite (lab-grown) - Cut: Round brilliant, pavé - Color: DEF colorless - Clarity: VVS - Metal: 925 sterling silver - Setting: Pavé oval with openwork glyph - Chain: Cable Styling note: tied to the Cancer window (late June into July), this makes a thoughtful birthday or just-because gift for the water sign in your life. The oval shape layers cleanly with a longer chain or a birthstone pendant, and the unisex styling suits any neckline. Care is easy: keep it clear of perfume, lotion, and pool water, wipe with a soft cloth after wear, and store it dry and flat so the silver holds its shine and the pavé stones stay secure. A meaningful star-sign piece with real everyday sparkle.
