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.

Quatrefoil Key Moissanite Pendant Necklace | 1 ct

About This Product

A key you actually want to wear. This pendant shapes a vintage skeleton key from 925 sterling silver, opening the bow into a four-lobed quatrefoil that frames a single round moissanite at its heart. The stone is bezel-set flush, so it reads like a glowing keyhole and snags nothing on collars or scarves. Below, a slim polished shaft tapers to a notched bit, giving the charm its unmistakable key silhouette in clean, modern lines. The center stone carries real optical credentials. At a 1 ct diamond equivalent it measures about 6.5 mm across, cut to a refractive index of 2.65 versus a diamond's 2.42, which is why it throws noticeably more rainbow fire under everyday light. The moissanite is graded D-E-F colorless with VVS clarity, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off the scratches that dull softer stones over years of daily wear. The open back of the bezel lets light enter from every angle, keeping the stone alive even in low indoor lighting. Stylist's take: a key pendant is one of the easiest sentimental pieces to layer. Worn solo on its dainty cable chain it sits as a delicate focal point just below the collarbone; stacked with a shorter choker or a longer station chain it adds vertical line and a little story. The motif carries meaning, too, an old emblem of promise, protection and the key to someone's heart, which makes it an easy anniversary, graduation or just-because gift. Crafted in 925 sterling silver and finished in bright 18K white gold plating, it stays cool-toned and tarnish-resistant with basic care. Specs: 1 ct (6.5 mm) round moissanite, D-E-F / VVS, RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs; bezel set; 925 sterling silver, 18K white gold plating; cable chain.
