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.

Floral Halo Moissanite Stud Earrings | 1ct DEW Each

About This Product

Each of these stud earrings centers a 1ct DEW round-brilliant moissanite (6.5mm) inside an ornate floral halo, so the lobe reads like a blossom caught mid-bloom. A double scalloped border of micro-pave traces the petal outline, while four princess-cut accents mark the points of the flower — a vintage-inspired silhouette that gives each stud the presence of a far larger solitaire. Moissanite carries a refractive index of 2.65 against a diamond's 2.42, so the center stone returns noticeably more fire, and the surrounding pave scatters that brilliance across the whole flower. In DEF colorless, VVS clarity, the stones stay icy-white with no visible inclusions, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale they shrug off daily wear. A floral halo this detailed flatters a smaller center stone — the petal frame does the visual heavy lifting, so you get red-carpet sparkle without an oversized post tugging at the lobe. Style them with an open neckline or a low updo to let the scalloped edges catch the light; they sit flat on a secure friction post, equally at home at the office, a wedding, or a party. Set in 925 sterling silver finished in 18K white-gold plating for a bright, rhodium-like shine that resists tarnish. Sold as a pair, with carat quoted per earring in Sparkile convention. Specs: 1ct DEW each (6.5mm round center) / 2ct DEW pair, DEF colorless, VVS clarity, refractive index 2.65, 9.25 Mohs, 18K white-gold-plated 925 sterling silver, friction-back posts.
