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 Iced Mariner Link Chain | 10mm Men's

About This Product

Built for men who want maximum shine without maximum weight, this iced-out mariner chain links a run of puffed oval "coffee bean" stations, each crossed by a signature center bar and blanketed in micro-pave moissanite for an unbroken sheet of light from clasp to clasp. Roughly 10mm wide, every link is domed so the stones sit on a curve and throw fire in every direction as the chain moves against the neck. That is the fully-frozen hip-hop look, engineered to survive daily street wear rather than sit in a box. The proof is in the material. Moissanite carries a 2.65 refractive index against diamond's 2.42, so each pave stone returns more light per facet, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale the surface shrugs off the knocks and scuffs a chain takes at the collar. The links are cast in 925 sterling silver and finished in bright 18K white gold plating, then closed with a hidden box clasp so the line of stones runs clean with no gap at the back. Styling take: worn solo on the 56cm drop this reads as a statement piece over a plain tee or hoodie; on the shorter 41cm or 46cm it stacks under a longer pendant chain for a layered, custom-jeweler stack. The mariner motif sits between a Cuban link and a rope, so it pairs cleanly with either without competing. Specs: mariner link chain, ~10mm width, D-E-F colorless / VVS clarity moissanite (11+ ct DEW total), 925 sterling silver with 18K white gold plating, hidden box clasp, lengths 41cm / 46cm / 56cm.
