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.

2 CT DEW Round Moissanite Halo Pendant Necklace

About This Product

A round brilliant moissanite that reads as a full carat larger than its price suggests, framed by a pavé halo that widens the face and throws light from every angle. The center stone is an 8mm round (2 ct diamond equivalent weight), four-prong set so the girdle stays open and the pavilion catches light cleanly. The proof is in the material. Moissanite carries a 2.65 refractive index versus 2.42 for diamond, so the rainbow fire you see in the photo is measurable, not marketing. Stones are graded DEF colorless and VVS clarity, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale this is the hardest gemstone after diamond - safe for daily wear. The single halo ring and the pavé-set bail are each lined with small accent stones, and the whole pendant rides on a fine 925 sterling silver cable chain with a spring-ring clasp, finished in a white rhodium plating that keeps the metal bright against the colorless stones. Styling note: a haloed round sits flat and central, so it layers well under a slightly longer chain or wears alone at the collarbone with an open neckline. The halo does the visual work of a larger solitaire, which is why this reads dressier than its carat weight - good for a bridesmaid gift or a first fine-jewelry piece without the diamond premium. Specs: 8mm (2 ct DEW) round brilliant moissanite, DEF color, VVS clarity, RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs; pavé halo + bail; 925 sterling silver, white rhodium plating; cable chain, spring-ring clasp.
