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.

1ct Round Moissanite Cushion Halo Ring | Silver

About This Product

A 6.5mm round brilliant moissanite (1ct diamond equivalent weight) sits in a four-prong basket, framed by a cushion-shaped pavé halo that squares off the silhouette and makes the center stone read noticeably larger on the finger. Pavé-set accents continue partway down each cathedral shoulder, so the ring throws light from the crown all the way to the band. The moissanite is graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity, so it stays bright and white rather than warming toward yellow. Its refractive index of 2.65 outpaces diamond's 2.42, which is why the facets fire with the broad rainbow flashes you can see across the table in the photo. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it resists the everyday scratches that dull softer stones, and it is set in 925 sterling silver finished in bright rhodium-look white for a cool, mirror-clean tone. Styling note: a cushion halo around a round stone is the most forgiving halo to wear daily. The squared frame hides the prong line and gives a vintage-leaning outline, while the round center keeps the sparkle classic. It nests cleanly against a plain or pave wedding band because the shoulders taper before reaching the finger. Choose your center color: White (DEF colorless), Pink, Yellow, or Blue. Available in US ring sizes 4.5 through 8.5. Specs: 1ct DEW (6.5mm) round brilliant moissanite | DEF color, VVS clarity | refractive index 2.65 | 9.25 Mohs | cushion pave halo with shoulder accents | 925 sterling silver, rhodium-look white finish.
