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.

Pave Cross Moissanite Drop Earrings | Huggie Dangle

About This Product

Faith and sparkle meet in a drop you can wear from desk to dinner. A petite pave cross swings freely from a slim, hinged huggie hoop, so light catches the charm as it moves and the lobe still reads clean and modern. Because the cross dangles rather than sits flush, it flatters every face shape and layers easily with studs higher on the ear. Every stone is genuine moissanite, not crystal or cubic zirconia. Round brilliant stones are pave-set in tidy rows along the front of the huggie and across both arms of the cross, giving an unbroken line of fire with no dark gaps. Moissanite's refractive index of 2.65 throws more colored fire than a diamond's 2.42, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off daily wear. Default DEF colorless grade keeps the stones icy white, while VVS clarity means no eye-visible inclusions even up close. The setting is 925 sterling silver finished in bright 18K white-gold plating, so it stays cool and white against the skin and resists tarnish far better than raw silver. The hinged huggie clicks shut securely, making these comfortable enough to sleep in and quick to put on. Stylist note: wear the pair alone for an everyday cross, or stack one with a plain hoop on the same ear for a curated, asymmetric look. Carat is per earring, set as accent pave rather than a single center stone. Specs: round-cut moissanite, 0.5-0.99ct DEW per earring (pave), DEF color, VVS clarity, refractive index 2.65, 9.25 Mohs; 925 sterling silver with 18K white-gold plating; hinged huggie.
