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 Chain-Drop Moissanite Earrings

About This Product

A meaningful motif rendered with quiet precision. Each earring opens with a single round moissanite held in a smooth bezel that sits flush against the lobe, then a fine cable chain suspends a slender cross pavé-set down both bars with rows of small round moissanite. Because the cross hangs free, it sways with every turn of the head, so the stones never stop catching light. The scale is delicate and everyday-wearable, yet the fire is anything but subtle. Every stone is genuine moissanite, graded D-E-F colorless with VVS clarity, so the white metal stays icy rather than yellow-cast. With a refractive index of 2.65 against a diamond's 2.42, moissanite throws noticeably more rainbow fire, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it resists the daily scratches that would dull a softer stone. The bezel top measures about 0.5ct DEW (5mm) of presence per ear, while the cross is paved edge to edge for a continuous line of brilliance. The frame is 925 sterling silver finished in 18K white gold plating for a bright, durable shine. Stylist's note: the bezel-and-chain construction keeps the look clean for office or daily wear, while the dangling cross adds enough movement to read as a statement at a dinner or a service. Pair them with an open neckline so the drop has room to swing, and let the polished silver do the talking. Specs: 925 sterling silver, 18K white gold plated; round-cut moissanite, D-E-F color, VVS clarity, 2.65 refractive index, 9.25 Mohs; bezel top approx. 0.5ct DEW (5mm) per earring; pavé cross drop; push-back posts.
