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.

Men's 1 Carat Moissanite Ring | Round Halo Silver

About This Product

Built for a man who wants real presence on his hand, this signet-style ring centers a 1 carat (DEW) round-cut moissanite measuring 6.5mm, framed by a square pave halo and flanked by ribbed, grooved shoulders that give it a watch-band-inspired heft. The center stone is graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity, so it reads bright white face-up with no visible tint or inclusions. Moissanite's refractive index of 2.65 sits above diamond's 2.42, which is why the round brilliant throws more fire under direct light. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off daily wear, edging out everyday knocks better than most colored gems. The square halo and pave-set shoulders multiply the sparkle without inflating the center carat, and the wide, grooved band balances the stone for a proportionate, masculine profile that wears comfortably day to night. Expert take: the boxed halo plus channel-ribbed shoulders make a modest 6.5mm center stone wear much larger, so this is the ring to reach for when you want a statement piece that still looks deliberate rather than flashy. It suits a wider finger and pairs cleanly with a steel watch or a darker suit cuff, where the white metal and bright stone read crisp against the fabric. Crafted in 925 sterling silver with a bright rhodium-style white finish, every accent stone is hand-set into the halo and shoulders, and the gallery is open-backed so light reaches the center stone from below for maximum return. Available in sizes 9 through 12.5. Specs: 1ct DEW (6.5mm) round-cut moissanite | square pave halo + ribbed shoulders | DEF color, VVS clarity | RI 2.65 | 9.25 Mohs | 925 sterling silver, white finish.
