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.

Moissanite Butterfly Oval Drop Necklace | 925 Silver

About This Product

A pavé butterfly takes flight above a brilliant oval moissanite in this delicate drop pendant, a piece that reads as fine jewelry but wears easy enough for every day. The openwork butterfly wing is hand-set with tiny moissanite accents that trace its silhouette, then a single bezel-set round stone bridges down to the main event: a four-prong 8x6mm oval solitaire, roughly 1.25 DEW, that swings softly with movement. Because moissanite carries a 2.65 refractive index versus a diamond's 2.42, that oval throws noticeably more rainbow fire, and the elevated open setting lets light flood through every facet. The stones are graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity, so there is no visible tint or inclusion to distract from the sparkle, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale the facets stay crisp through years of wear. The pendant hangs from a fine cable chain in your choice of bright rhodium-look white or warm 18K gold plating over 925 sterling silver. Styling take: the vertical drop elongates the neckline, which makes this a flattering pick for a scoop or V-neck, and the butterfly motif keeps it playful rather than formal, so it layers happily with a shorter everyday chain or stands alone as a subtle statement. It lands well as a birthday, Valentine's, or just-because gift for someone who likes a little whimsy with their sparkle. Specs: 8x6mm (~1.25 DEW) oval moissanite center, DEF color, VVS clarity, pavé butterfly, bezel accent, 925 sterling silver, white or 18K gold plating.
