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 Ankh Cross Pendant | Fully Pave 925 Silver

About This Product

Defined by the looped top that sets the ankh apart from a Latin cross, this pendant carries the Egyptian key-of-life silhouette fully encrusted in pave-set round moissanite across the loop, both arms, the stem, and the bail. Every facet is DEF colorless with VVS clarity; moissanite's 2.65 refractive index (versus a diamond's 2.42) is why a fully iced piece this size throws so much white fire under direct light. The form is architectural and symmetrical - a teardrop loop above a flared-foot stem - giving it a bolder, more modern presence than a traditional cross. Spec block - Stone: moissanite (round brilliant pave field, DEF/White, VVS, 9.25 Mohs); Cut: round; Metal: 925 sterling silver; Plating: white or yellow gold (variant); Setting: full micro-pave; Chain: cable. The 9.25 Mohs hardness matters most on a fully-set piece like this, where exposed accent stones along the edges would otherwise abrade first - moissanite holds its polish through daily collar wear. Styling note: the ankh reads as an intentional, symbol-forward statement rather than a faith default, so it suits a streetwear or hip-hop layering stack as readily as a solo drop on a heavier chain. Care is simple - rinse off sweat and lotion residue, dry fully, and store flat so the pave field stays bright; avoid ultrasonic cleaners on the white-gold variant. With light entering the loop's open center as well as the front face, the ankh sparkles from more angles than a solid-back cross, which is what gives it its head-turning, fully-lit look.
