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 Marquise Butterfly Pendant Necklace

About This Product

Turn the gemstones themselves into the motif: four elongated marquise-cut moissanite stones meet point-to-point to draw the open wings of this butterfly pendant, with a polished bead at the center where the wings converge. A fine pavé halo of round-cut accents traces the full butterfly outline, so the silhouette reads clearly from across a room while every facet catches the light. Total moissanite weight is just over 1.0ct DEW (each marquise roughly 6x3mm), graded DEF colorless and VVS clarity. Because moissanite carries a 2.65 refractive index against a diamond's 2.42, the wings throw noticeably more rainbow fire as you move, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale the stones shrug off daily wear. The pendant and its cable chain are built in 925 sterling silver, finished in your choice of bright white-gold or warm yellow-gold plating. Styling note: a butterfly this compact sits high near the collarbone, so it layers cleanly above a longer pendant or a station chain without tangling, and the open-wing negative space keeps it light and everyday rather than fussy. The marquise centers give it a touch more sparkle than a plain pavé motif, which makes it an easy birthday or anniversary gift that still works at the office. The white-gold finish leans crisp and modern; the yellow-gold reads warmer and pairs well with gold-toned watches and rings. Each piece arrives ready to wear on its included chain. Specs: 1.0ct DEW total (marquise + pavé) | DEF / VVS moissanite | 925 sterling silver, white- or yellow-gold plated | 9.25 Mohs | cable chain included.
