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.

Honeycomb Moissanite Solitaire Ring | 0.5ct 925 Silver

About This Product

This honeycomb solitaire pairs a round brilliant moissanite with a band of linked hexagonal segments, so the geometry of the band carries the design as much as the center stone does. A six-prong head lifts the stone clear of the shank, giving light full access to the crown for the wide, white flash you can see across the table in the photo. The center moissanite is a 0.5ct DEW round measuring 5mm, graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity. Its refractive index of 2.65 outsparkles a diamond's 2.42, so it throws more fire per millimeter, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off the knocks of daily wear. The band is 925 sterling silver finished in rhodium plating for a bright white, tarnish-resistant surface; the hexagonal links flanking the head are milgrain-detailed and set with small accent stones that add texture without widening the profile. Styling note: the hexagonal honeycomb band reads as a low-profile, modern alternative to a plain solitaire. Because the shank is patterned rather than a smooth round wire, it stacks cleanly against a plain wedding band or a second textured ring without the two shanks rolling against each other. The 5mm head keeps the silhouette slim enough for everyday wear, carrying from desk to dinner without snagging. Four center-stone colors are offered: a colorless White as shown, plus Pink, Blue, and Yellow for a tinted look. Ring sizes run US 4.5 through 8.5, so it works as a right-hand ring, a stacker, or a slim engagement piece. Specs: 0.5ct DEW (5mm) round moissanite, DEF color, VVS clarity, RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs, six-prong setting, rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver hexagonal honeycomb band.
