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 Horseshoe Buckle Stud Earrings | 925 Silver

About This Product

Equestrian polish meets nautical hardware in these horseshoe-buckle stud earrings, where a high-shine sterling silver shackle loop hangs from a slim pave-set bar that crosses the top like a cinched buckle. It is a compact, architectural silhouette that reads as a stud from the front yet carries the presence of a small drop, giving you the ease of a post with the personality of a statement piece. Moissanite does the heavy lifting here: a row of round accents runs down the upright bar, two bezel-set stones sit at the ball-end rivets where the loop pivots, and a single bezel-set stone anchors the base of the horseshoe for a discreet flash from every angle. With a refractive index of 2.65 against diamond's 2.42, each stone throws more fire than a comparable diamond, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it resists the scuffs and scratches of daily wear. The gems are D-E-F colorless with VVS clarity, so there is no visible tint or inclusion to catch the eye. Crafted in solid 925 sterling silver and offered in 18K white gold or 18K yellow gold plating, the pair fastens with secure friction-back posts that keep them steady from desk to dinner. Total moissanite weight is under 0.5ct DEW, roughly 0.2ct per earring, keeping the look refined rather than flashy. Stylist note: the U-shackle shape flatters shorter haircuts and pulled-back styles that let the hardware detail read cleanly against the neck. Spec: 925 sterling silver, 18K white or yellow gold plated; round moissanite, D-E-F color, VVS clarity, 2.65 RI, 9.25 Mohs; under 0.5ct DEW total; friction-back posts.
