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.

Crossover Split-Rail Moissanite Huggie Earrings

About This Product

These crossover huggie earrings cradle a single round brilliant moissanite in a tension hold between two crossing split rails, so the stone appears to float with almost no metal touching it. Light enters the gem from nearly every direction, which is the point of an open setting like this: with the prongs minimized, the moissanite's 2.65 refractive index (versus 2.42 for a diamond) returns more fire and brightness than a comparable claw-set stud would. The polished hoop wraps close to the lobe and snaps shut on a hinged latch, so it stays put through a full day and reads as a refined everyday piece rather than occasion-only. Each earring carries roughly a 1 carat DEW stone (about 6.5mm), graded D-E-F colorless with VVS clarity, set in 925 sterling silver finished in bright white rhodium-style plating that mimics white gold. Stylist take: the split-rail V is more architectural than a plain solitaire huggie, so it does quiet visual work on its own but still layers cleanly with a second or third piercing above it. Wear them as the anchor of a curated lobe stack, or solo when you want one clean point of sparkle. Because the stone sits low at the base of the hoop, it catches movement and light as you turn your head, giving more flash than a stud that sits flat on the lobe. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale, moissanite shrugs off daily wear without clouding or scratching. Spec: 925 sterling silver, white rhodium-style plating, round brilliant moissanite ~1ct DEW (6.5mm) per earring, D-E-F color, VVS clarity, hinged huggie back, sold as a pair.
