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.

Moissanite Open Heart Pendant – 925 Silver

About This Product

An open-heart silhouette that frames its centerpiece in negative space, so a single round brilliant moissanite floats at the heart's opening and catches light from every angle. That center stone is graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity and weighs roughly 0.50ct DEW (about 5mm) — substantial enough to read across a room, restrained enough for daily wear. A refractive index of 2.65 versus a diamond's 2.42 is why moissanite throws noticeably more rainbow fire; you'll see it flash on a coffee run, not just under jewelry-store spotlights. The lower V of the heart frame is pavé-set with a sweep of small accent stones that trace the curve and add quiet shimmer leading to the point. Crafted in 925 sterling silver finished with white-gold and silver-tone plating for a bright, rhodium-like shine, the pendant hangs from a thin minimalist rolo (cable) chain that keeps the focus on the open-heart frame rather than competing with it. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale, moissanite is the hardest jewelry stone after diamond, so the prong-set center holds up to everyday knocks better than softer simulants. Styling note: the open frame layers beautifully — wear it solo on a higher neckline for a clean focal point, or stack it over a longer chain or a delicate bar for an effortless two-tier look. Because the silhouette is symbolic rather than literal, it reads as romantic without being saccharine, which makes it an easy gift that doesn't try too hard. A natural pick for Valentine's Day, an anniversary, or a "just because" moment. Lab-grown, ethically made, and built to be worn often.
