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.

Open Heart Moissanite Necklace 0.54ct DEW Halo

About This Product

An open heart traced in light: this pendant takes the most recognizable love symbol and lines its entire outer edge with prong-set moissanite, so the heart reads as pure sparkle rather than plain metal. The center is a clean, polished hollow cutout, and radiating outward from it sits a halo of round-brilliant moissanite (each 1.9mm) set in upturned prongs that flare like rays. The result is an edge-lit glow that catches light from every angle as you move. That brilliance is measurable, not marketing: moissanite carries a 2.65 refractive index versus a diamond's 2.42, so it returns noticeably more fire, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off the scuffs of daily wear against collars, scarves and seatbelts. The stones are DEF colorless with VVS clarity, totalling 0.54ct DEW across the halo. Stylist's take: an open-heart silhouette wears younger and lighter than a solid heart, and the halo gives it presence without bulk, so it layers cleanly over a crewneck or sits alone against bare skin at a 45cm length that lands just below the collarbone. Choose rhodium-plated white gold for a cool diamond-look, or rose and yellow gold plating to warm it up for everyday or gifting. The pendant measures 23.6mm tall by 16.4mm wide, a confident-but-wearable scale that photographs beautifully and reads instantly as a heart from across a room. A thoughtful piece for a birthday, anniversary or just-because. Specs: 0.54ct DEW total | 1.9mm round-brilliant moissanite, DEF / VVS | RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs | 925 sterling silver, rhodium / rose / yellow gold plating | pendant 23.6 x 16.4mm | 45cm chain | 4.18g.
