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.

Pavé Moissanite Cross Pendant Necklace | Sterling Silver

About This Product

A faith symbol that catches light from every angle. This cross pendant is fully pavé-set with round brilliant moissanite, so the metal almost disappears under the stones. A continuous outer frame of fine pavé traces the entire silhouette, while a raised central channel of slightly larger round stones runs the length of both arms and the upright. Where they cross, a single raised round moissanite sits proud of the surface as the focal point. The layered, two-tier setting gives the piece real depth rather than a flat sparkle. Moissanite earns that brilliance honestly: a 2.65 refractive index throws more fire than a diamond's 2.42, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off everyday wear. The stones are graded D-E-F colorless with VVS clarity, so the face-up look stays icy white. The pendant is crafted in 925 sterling silver finished with bright 18K white gold plating for a crisp, rhodium-like shine, and hangs from a polished cable chain that keeps all the attention on the cross. Styling note: the slim, vertical proportions read elegant rather than heavy, so this layers beautifully over a crew neckline or sits clean on bare skin with an open collar. It works as an everyday piece and dresses up just as easily for a christening, wedding, or holiday gathering. A genuinely versatile gift that suits both delicate and statement-leaning wearers. Specs: round brilliant moissanite, <0.5ct DEW total; D-E-F color, VVS clarity; 2.65 refractive index; 9.25 Mohs; 925 sterling silver with 18K white gold plating; cable chain.
