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.

Pear Cut Moissanite Halo Ring | 1ct DEW Silver

About This Product

This pear cut moissanite ring frames a teardrop center stone in a full pavé halo, then carries the sparkle down a pavé-set band so light hits the setting from every angle. The elongated pear silhouette stretches the finger and reads larger than its footprint, making it a flattering engagement or stacking choice for everyday wear. The center moissanite is a 1ct DEW stone measuring 6.5mm, graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity. Its refractive index of 2.65 outperforms diamond's 2.42, which is why the facets throw the bright, fiery flashes you see in the photo rather than a flat shine. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it resists everyday scratching, and the surrounding halo plus shoulder accents add measurable face-up brilliance without enlarging the center stone or the price. The band is 925 sterling silver finished with rhodium plating for a bright white, tarnish-resistant surface that mimics platinum. The four-prong center setting lifts the pear so the point stays crisp and protected, while the claw-set halo and pavé shoulders keep the small accent stones secure through daily handwashing and typing. Stylist take: a pear halo is the cheat code for looking like a larger center stone. Wear it solo on the ring finger for an engagement look, or pair it with a thin plain band to let the halo do the talking. The north-pointing teardrop also visually lengthens shorter fingers, and the slim shank keeps the proportions delicate.
