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.

1ct Moissanite Crossover Ribbon Teardrop Stud Earrings

About This Product

Movement is the whole point of these studs. A slim, mirror-polished ribbon of metal loops up from the lobe and crosses over itself at the top, drawing an open teardrop that frames the stone instead of enclosing it. Inside that curve sits a round-cut moissanite held in three slender claw prongs at the base, so light reaches it from every side and the open frame keeps the whole earring feeling weightless. The inner edge of the ribbon is lined with a single row of pave moissanite, a trail of small sparkle that runs down the curve and leads the eye straight to the center stone. The proof is in the optics. Each center stone is graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity, and its 2.65 refractive index (against 2.42 for diamond) throws noticeably more fire, especially with the airy frame letting light flood in from behind. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off daily wear, and at 1ct per earring the 6.5mm stones read substantial without overwhelming the lobe. Stylist's take: the crossover teardrop is one of those shapes that quietly does the work of a much bigger earring. The vertical lift flatters round and heart face shapes, and the cool white plating reads equally at home with a work blouse or an evening neckline. Wear them as your everyday pair and let the pave catch the room. Specs: 1ct DEW (6.5mm) round moissanite per earring; DEF color, VVS clarity; 925 sterling silver with white gold plating; three-prong setting with pave-lined ribbon; friction-back posts.
