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 Twisted Single-Row Huggie Earrings

About This Product

A single twisted row of round brilliant moissanite traces the front of these hinged huggie hoops, each stone individually prong-set so light strikes every facet from lobe to lobe. The row alternates slightly larger centers with petite accents to create the soft twist, and the graduated line tapers into a 20mm hoop that clicks shut on a secure hinge for confident everyday wear. Each earring carries approximately 1.0ct DEW of moissanite, with the brightest stones measuring about 2.5mm and the band narrowing to 1.0mm at the back. The gems are D-E-F colorless with VVS clarity, and moissanite's 2.65 refractive index throws noticeably more fire than diamond's 2.42 — so this slim row reads far brighter than its modest footprint. A 9.25 Mohs hardness keeps every facet crisp through pillows, scarves, and daily handling, while the snug hugging fit sits close to the ear rather than swinging. Styling note: at 20mm these wear like a substantial everyday hoop, not a stud — wear them solo as a go-everywhere upgrade, or stack them above a smaller second piercing for a curated ear. The twisted single-row layout catches light from the side as well as the front, which is why it photographs and flatters in profile better than a flat pavé band. Crafted in 925 sterling silver with a bright rhodium-style white finish, and also offered in warm yellow and rose tones to match your everyday metals. Specs: ~1.0ct DEW per earring, D-E-F / VVS round brilliant moissanite, ~2.5mm largest stone, 20mm hoop, hinged snap closure, 925 sterling silver.
