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.

Inside-Out Moissanite Hoop Earrings – 2.6ct DEW White Gold

About This Product

Catch the light from any angle. These inside-out hoops set a continuous row of round-brilliant moissanite along both the outer arc and the inner face of each hoop, so the sparkle stays visible whether you face the room or turn your head. The result reads like a genuine diamond hoop from across the room, at a fraction of the cost. Each 3.0mm stone is held in a shared-prong line that keeps metal minimal and brilliance maximal, totalling 2.6ct DEW per hoop. Moissanite carries a refractive index of 2.65 versus 2.42 for diamond, which is exactly why these hoops throw more colourful fire than the stone they imitate, graded DEF colorless and VVS clarity for an icy, eye-clean white. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale they shrug off daily wear far better than most simulants. The hoops are crafted in 925 sterling silver with bright 18K white-gold plating, finished with a secure hinged snap-bar closure that sits flush against the lobe. Styling tip: an inside-out hoop is the workhorse of a jewelry wardrobe — small enough at this 3.0mm stone width to wear to the office, bright enough to carry an evening look on their own. Pair them with a tennis necklace for a fully matched line of brilliance, or wear solo when you want one clean statement. They suit everyday wear, weddings, parties and birthdays equally well. A true buy-once hoop that earns its place in regular rotation. Specs: 3.0mm round moissanite, 2.6ct DEW per earring, DEF color, VVS clarity, RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs, 18K white-gold-plated 925 sterling silver, hinged snap closure.
