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 Floating Teardrop Pendant Necklace

About This Product

Movement is the whole point of this pendant: a 1.0ct DEW (6.5mm) round brilliant moissanite sits suspended inside an open teardrop frame on a flexible mount, so the stone gently dances and catches light with every step. That kinetic setting turns an everyday neckline into something that quietly sparkles, day to night. The center stone earns its shimmer honestly: moissanite's 2.65 refractive index releases more fire than a diamond's 2.42, in a DEF colorless grade with VVS clarity, so it reads bright and icy-white rather than warm or glassy. A single curve of the teardrop is lined with pave accents, adding a refined, asymmetric shimmer that frames the floating center without competing with it. The frame is crafted in 925 sterling silver, offered in luminous 18K yellow-gold plating or a bright white-gold (rhodium-style) finish to suit cool or warm wardrobes, and hangs from a delicate cable chain with a polished bail. Styling note: because the open teardrop keeps the silhouette light and the stone does the work, this layers beautifully over a higher second chain or wears solo at a collarbone-grazing length under a crew neckline. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale, moissanite shrugs off daily wear, scratching and clouding far less than cubic zirconia, which makes a dancing-stone style like this practical for everyday use rather than just occasion wear. It is an easy gift pick for an anniversary, birthday, or a first piece of fine-look jewelry. Specs: 1.0ct DEW (6.5mm) round brilliant moissanite, DEF color, VVS clarity, 2.65 refractive index, 9.25 Mohs; pave-set teardrop frame in 18K gold-plated or white-gold-finish 925 sterling silver on a cable chain.
