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.

Sideways Cross Pave Moissanite Ring | Faith Band

About This Product

Wear your faith quietly with a whisper-thin pave band that carries a small sideways cross at its crown. The slender shank is bead-set edge to edge with petite round moissanite, roughly 0.17ct DEW of accent stones each well under 2mm, so the ring reads as one unbroken thread of light around the finger. The upright cross sits just proud of the band, framed by four-prong settings on a tiny vertical bar, giving the design a faith-forward focal point without adding bulk. Because moissanite carries a 2.65 refractive index against a diamond's 2.42, even these sub-2mm stones throw bright, lively fire, while DEF colorless grading and VVS clarity keep the line crisp and white. The band is 925 sterling silver finished in white-gold-look rhodium plating, a bright reflective surface that resists tarnish and reads true platinum-white in any light. Expert take: this is a purpose-built stacker. Its low profile lets it nest flush against a solitaire or a plain band, and worn two or three to a hand the repeated pave line amplifies the sparkle far beyond its slim footprint. The sideways cross also makes it a thoughtful confirmation, baptism, or everyday faith piece that never tips into costume territory. Comfortable enough to forget you have it on, it suits daily wear, the office, or layering for parties and weddings. Available in whole sizes 5 through 9. Specs: 925 sterling silver, rhodium (white-gold-look) plated; round moissanite, ~0.17ct DEW total; DEF color; VVS clarity; 9.25 Mohs hardness; refractive index 2.65.
