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.

Emerald-Cut Moissanite Halo Pendant | 1ct DEW Silver

About This Product

A long emerald-cut moissanite sits at the heart of this halo pendant, its parallel step facets producing the calm, hall-of-mirrors clarity that flashier cuts cannot. Where a brilliant cut scatters light into restless sparkle, this rectangular step cut draws the eye straight down into the stone, so the 1ct DEW (7x5mm) center reads clean, icy and architectural. A close-set halo of round moissanite accents wraps the rectangle, lifting brilliance around its quieter face, and a small four-stone diamond-shaped cluster bridges the halo to the bail, carrying the eye upward toward the cable chain. To be clear, this is a colorless white moissanite cut in the emerald shape - not a green emerald gemstone - so it stays bright against the skin. With a refractive index of 2.65 (versus 2.42 for diamond) it returns more fire than a diamond of the same size, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off everyday wear. The stones are DEF colorless with VVS clarity, prong-set in white-gold-plated 925 sterling silver. Styling note: emerald-cut halo pendants flatter an open neckline and a higher chain length (16-18 inches), where the rectangular stone sits clean against the collarbone. It layers easily over a longer round or station necklace for an off-duty stack, yet holds its own as a solo piece for the office or an evening out - a quietly dressy everyday hero. Specs: 1ct DEW emerald-cut moissanite, 7x5mm center; round-cut halo and accent cluster; DEF colorless, VVS clarity; refractive index 2.65; 9.25 Mohs; white-gold-plated 925 sterling silver; cable chain.
