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.

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.

3ct Cushion Moissanite Halo Ring | Twisted Band

About This Product

A cushion-cut moissanite takes center stage here, its softly squared, gently elongated silhouette caught inside a matching cushion-shaped halo of pavé accents that ring the stone and visually push its size larger. The center is a 3ct DEW moissanite, roughly 9.5mm across, held in four sculpted claw prongs so light reaches every facet. Moissanite carries a 2.65 refractive index against a diamond's 2.42, which is why the cushion's broad facets throw that unmistakable rainbow fire under everyday light. The shank is the signature detail: two rows of pavé twist around each other in a rope motif from the halo down to the back of the band, so the sparkle continues uninterrupted along the finger rather than stopping at the head. Stylist's take: a cushion-and-halo head reads as a classic engagement silhouette, while the twisted pavé shoulders give it movement and a vintage edge most plain-shank halos lack. It wears well as a standalone statement or paired with a thin contour band. Everything is set in 925 sterling silver with a bright white rhodium-style finish that keeps the focus on the stones and resists everyday tarnish. The DEF colorless grade means the center reads icy-white with no warm tint, and VVS clarity keeps it eye-clean from any angle. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale, the moissanite shrugs off the scratches and knocks of daily wear far better than softer simulants. Offered in ring sizes 5 through 9. Specs: 3ct DEW (~9.5mm) cushion-cut moissanite center, pavé cushion halo, twisted pavé shank, DEF color, VVS clarity, RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs, 925 sterling silver, white rhodium-style finish.
