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.

Music Note Moissanite Pendant Necklace | DEF VVS

About This Product

There is something quietly personal about wearing the symbol of a soundtrack you live by. This treble-clef pendant traces the full flowing curve of the clef in polished 925 sterling silver, its inner sweep lined with a graduated row of pavé moissanite and a single round accent set at the base of the tail. The effect is delicate rather than flashy: the stones catch light along the curl as the pendant moves, so the note reads clearly from across a room while staying refined up close. The stones are what set it apart from a plain silver charm. Moissanite is DEF colorless with VVS clarity, and its refractive index of 2.65 - higher than a diamond's 2.42 - returns a brighter, more colorful flash for the carat. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it resists the scratches and clouding that dull softer simulants, so the pavé keeps its sparkle through daily wear. Each accent sits under 0.5ct DEW, scaled to keep the clef graceful rather than weighed down. Stylist's note: at roughly an inch tall on a fine cable chain, this layers beautifully over a crew neckline or a simple tee, and it makes an easy gift for a musician, singer, or anyone who measures their life in songs. Choose white gold plating for a cool rhodium-bright finish or rose gold for a warmer tone against the skin. The 925 silver base resists tarnish with normal care, and the lobster-clasp chain adjusts to sit at collarbone length. Specs: 925 sterling silver, white or rose gold plating; pavé + accent moissanite, DEF / VVS, RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs; 40+5cm adjustable cable chain.
