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.

Round Moissanite Baguette Halo Stud Earrings

About This Product

Sparkile's Round Cut Moissanite Halo Stud Earrings turn a single round brilliant into a full burst of light. Each stud centers a round-cut moissanite framed by a sunburst halo of tapered baguettes set in radiating prongs, giving every earring the face-up presence of a far larger stone while staying a true everyday stud you can wear from morning to night. The center moissanite is graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity, and its 2.65 refractive index (versus 2.42 for diamond) is what drives the extra fire you see flashing through the baguette frame. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it resists the scratches and clouding that dull lesser stones, so the sparkle holds up to daily wear without going hazy. The baguette halo is hand-set in 925 sterling silver finished with white gold plating, a bright rhodium-tone that reads platinum-white in any light and keeps the metal from yellowing against the stones. Styling take: a sunburst halo this structured photographs beautifully and dresses up instantly, so it carries from a work blouse to an evening dress without a second thought, and the round silhouette flatters every face shape. Choose the 1ct (6.5mm) per earring for a halo that genuinely reads from across a room, or the 0.5ct (5mm) per earring for a softer, more wearable scale. Secure push-back closures keep both studs seated and level through a full day. Specs: round-cut moissanite center, DEF / VVS, RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs; tapered-baguette sunburst halo; 925 sterling silver, white gold plated; sizes 0.5ct (5mm) and 1ct (6.5mm) per earring; push-back posts.
