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.

Heart Prong Moissanite Engagement Ring | 1ct

About This Product

Six small heart-shaped prongs reach up to hold a 1ct DEW round brilliant moissanite (about 6.5mm), giving a traditional six-claw solitaire a soft romantic detail at the crown. The extra prongs spread the hold around the girdle for a secure seat while leaving the pavilion open, so light enters cleanly and the face-up sparkle stays bright. Moissanite's 2.65 refractive index sits above a diamond's 2.42, which is why the stone flashes more fire in ordinary room light, and its 9.25 Mohs hardness helps the polished facets shrug off the knocks of daily wear. The center is DEF colorless (Stone Color White) at VVS clarity for a clean white face that suits an engagement piece. Spec block - Stone: Moissanite; Cut: Round Brilliant; Size: 1ct DEW (about 6.5mm); Color: DEF; Clarity: VVS; Metal: 925 Sterling Silver; Setting: Six heart prongs. Keep it classic in white or choose Blue, Pink, or Yellow for a colored center, with US sizes from 4.5 to 8.5 to match the wearer. Because the moissanite is lab-grown, the full 1ct look arrives at a fraction of a mined-diamond cost, freeing up budget for a matching band. Styling note: the slim tapered band and raised six-prong head clear a flush wedding band neatly, so the pair sits together without gapping, and the heart prongs add a personal touch that photographs well up close. A jeweler's tip - six prongs protect the girdle better than four on an everyday ring, so the heart detail is practical as well as pretty. Care is easy - soak in warm soapy water, brush gently behind each heart prong to lift lotion and dust, then dry with a soft cloth; remove before rough tasks and skip harsh solvents to keep the setting tight and the moissanite at full brilliance.
