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 Solitaire Open Hoop Earrings

About This Product

A study in modern minimalism, these open-hoop earrings thread a single round brilliant-cut moissanite at the lobe, then sweep into a clean, polished half-circle that frames the ear without overwhelming it. Each stone is roughly 0.5ct DEW (about 5mm), held in a slender three-prong basket that lifts it off the post so light enters from every angle. The thin open hoop hangs behind the stud, giving the illusion of a floating solitaire above a fine silver arc, an architectural look that reads dressed-up or everyday depending on what you pair it with. Moissanite's 2.65 refractive index (versus 2.42 for diamond) means each stone throws noticeably more fire than a diamond of the same size, so the sparkle does the talking while the silhouette stays understated. DEF colorless grading and VVS clarity keep the stones bright and eye-clean, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale they resist the scratches and clouding that dull cubic zirconia within months. The post-and-butterfly back secures the stud through the piercing while the open hoop floats free, so there is no clasp to fiddle with. Expert take: because the hoop is open rather than closed, these sit flush and comfortable for all-day wear and layer beautifully with a second, smaller stud higher on the ear. Wear them solo for a quiet polish at the office, or stack with a cuff for evening. The 925 sterling silver base with 18K white gold plating resists tarnish and holds a cool, bright-white tone next to the stones.
