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.

Princess Cut Moissanite Huggie Earrings | 925 Silver

About This Product

A two-stone huggie that pairs geometry with sparkle: each earring holds a square princess-cut moissanite below a round brilliant accent, both held in four-prong baskets on a snug hinged hoop. The square step-and-brilliant facets throw broad flashes of light, while the round accent above adds a second point of fire as you move. Under a loupe the cut is clean: sharp corners on the princess, a high crown, and a refractive index of 2.65 that pushes more light back at the eye than a 2.42 diamond. The stones are DEF colorless and VVS clarity, so they read bright white against the rhodium-plated finish with no warm or grey cast. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale the moissanite resists the everyday scratches that dull lesser stones, and the 925 sterling silver base keeps the pair light on the lobe. Styling note: the compact huggie form sits close to the ear, so this is the rare princess-cut piece you can wear from desk to dinner without it swinging or catching. The two-stone stack reads as one continuous line of light from the front, then resolves into distinct square-plus-round shapes up close. Combined weight is 2.6ct DEW across the pair (1.3ct per earring), with the princess stone as the focal point and a smaller round brilliant above. The hinged huggie closure clicks shut for secure all-day wear. Specs: 2.6ct DEW total (princess + round, per pair) | DEF color | VVS clarity | refractive index 2.65 | 9.25 Mohs | 925 sterling silver, rhodium-plated | hinged huggie closure
