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.

Micro-Pave Solitaire Moissanite Ring | 1ct DEW Round

About This Product

This micro-pave solitaire moissanite ring carries a round brilliant-cut center held in a clean four-prong basket, with a row of bead-set accent stones tracking down each shoulder of the band so the setting reads delicate without losing presence. The hero finish shown is the pink center stone, with white, yellow, and blue options also available on the same rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver mount. The center is a 1ct DEW round measuring 6.5mm across, cut to maximise the brilliance moissanite is known for. With a refractive index of 2.65 against a diamond's 2.42, it returns more fire than a diamond of the same size, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off the daily knocks an everyday ring takes. DEF colorless, VVS clarity. The pave shoulders are channel-bead set so small stones sit flush and snag-free against fabric. Styling note: a 6.5mm round in a slim pave band photographs larger than its DEW because the shoulder stones widen the visual footprint without bulking the profile. The pink variant sits well as a stack accent or a non-traditional engagement piece; the white reads classic solitaire if you want the stones to do the talking. Rhodium plating keeps the white metal bright but is a surface layer, so treat it as you would any plated silver. Spec: 1ct DEW round (6.5mm) center | DEF / VVS | RI 2.65 | 9.25 Mohs | rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver | pave shoulders | sizes 4.5-8.5 | colors white, pink, yellow, blue.
