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 Floating Solitaire Necklace

About This Product

A single princess-cut moissanite hovers at the hollow of the throat, suspended on a clear fishline strand so fine the stone reads as if floating on bare skin. With no visible chain to compete, the square brilliant becomes the whole piece: crisp corners, a sharp point-up set, and a four-prong basket that lifts the gem clear of the skin so light enters from every angle. Moissanite earns that brightness honestly. Its 2.65 refractive index outpaces diamond's 2.42, throwing more fire from a stone graded DEF colorless and VVS clarity, so it stays icy-white rather than warming or graying over time. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off the daily knocks an everyday necklace takes. The basket and findings are 925 sterling silver finished in bright rhodium-look white plating, with a lobster clasp and an extender chain so you can wear it high as a near-choker or let it settle lower. Stylist's note: an illusion-set solitaire is the one necklace that works with absolutely everything because there is no chain texture or color to clash. Layer it under a deeper pendant, wear it solo with an open neckline, or pair it with matching princess-cut studs for a quiet, polished set. The point-up orientation gives it a kite-like tilt that feels more modern than a flat square. Choose 1.0 ct (6.5mm), 2.0 ct (8mm), or 3.0 ct (9.5mm DEW) to dial the presence from delicate to unmissable. Spec: princess-cut moissanite, DEF / VVS, RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs; 925 sterling silver, white-plated; invisible fishline strand with adjustable extender.
