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 Open-Circle Pendant Necklace

About This Product

Wear a full circle of light at the collarbone. This open-circle pendant traces an unbroken loop, a timeless symbol of forever, built from a softly twisted rope-style band set all the way around with round-cut moissanite. Because the stones spiral with the twist instead of lying flat, the ring catches light from every angle and flickers as you move rather than sitting static. The brilliance is real, not marketing: moissanite carries a refractive index of 2.65 against a diamond's 2.42, so it throws noticeably more fire, and these are DEF colorless, VVS-clarity stones that read bright white with no warm or grey cast. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off the daily scuffs an everyday necklace takes. The circle measures roughly 16mm across with a total moissanite weight under 0.5ct DEW, each stone about 2mm, so it stays delicate and modern rather than heavy or costume. It hangs from a fine cable chain that keeps the open circle centered and balanced at the base of the throat. Stylist's note: an open circle is the most layer-friendly pendant shape there is. Worn alone it's a clean, minimalist everyday piece for work or commute; stacked above a longer solitaire or bar pendant it adds a halo of sparkle without competing. It reads equally at home with a crewneck tee or a party dress. Crafted in 925 sterling silver finished in 18K white-gold plating for a crisp, tarnish-resistant shine. Specs: 925 sterling silver, 18K white-gold plated; round DEF/VVS moissanite, under 0.5ct DEW total (~2mm stones); open circle approx. 16mm; fine cable chain.
