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.

Crown Moissanite Pendant Necklace – 0.5ct 925 Silver

About This Product

A royal crown that catches the eye from across the room: this openwork crown pendant frames a single round-brilliant moissanite that floats free in the open center, set on a "dancing stone" mount so it shimmers with every breath you take. The crown's heart-arched silhouette is traced in pavé-set accent stones, so the whole motif sparkles, not just the center. That center stone is the showpiece. At 0.5ct DEW (about 5mm) it reads bright and lively because moissanite carries a refractive index of 2.65 versus a diamond's 2.42 — measurably more fire and brilliance, which is exactly why the floating setting works so well here. It grades DEF colorless and VVS clarity, so there's no warm tint or visible inclusion to dull the flash. The crown is 925 sterling silver plated in white gold, a rhodium-bright finish that mirrors the cool white of the moissanite and resists everyday tarnish. The fine cable chain fastens with a secure spring-ring clasp. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale, moissanite is second only to diamond for hardness, so this is a piece you can wear daily without babying it. Styling note: the pendant sits small and delicate (the crown is roughly fingertip-sized), so it layers beautifully over a higher choker or wears solo at the collarbone for a "queen energy" everyday piece. It's an easy gift for a birthday, graduation, or a self-treat with real meaning behind the crown motif.
