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.

French Pave Moissanite Half-Eternity Band Ring

About This Product

A half-eternity band that slips into any stack and still reads as the main event. Eleven round brilliant moissanite sit shoulder to shoulder across the front face in a French fishtail pave, the shared prongs lifted into delicate points so light reaches every stone from the side as well as the top. The back half of the band is left as smooth, polished metal, which keeps it comfortable against neighbouring rings and makes resizing simple. Worn alone it traces a slim line of sparkle along the top of the finger; paired with a solitaire it becomes the wedding-band half of a set. Because moissanite carries a 2.65 refractive index against a diamond's 2.42, this narrow row throws more fire than its width suggests, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale the stones shrug off daily knocks. The melee are D-E-F colourless with VVS clarity, so the line stays bright and white with no tint creeping in under the prongs. Each stone runs roughly 2 mm, giving the band its delicate scale without sacrificing presence. Expert take: a half-eternity in 18K white gold over sterling is the most versatile band you can own, since the plain underside lets you size up or down and the front-loaded stones photograph as a full eternity from above while costing and weighing far less. Stack two for a graphic look or float one beside an engagement ring. Spec block: 925 sterling silver, 18K white gold plating; 11 round brilliant moissanite ~2 mm each, D-E-F colour, VVS clarity, 2.65 RI, 9.25 Mohs; French fishtail pave; approx. 2.6 g.
