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 Ring | 0.5ct Silver

About This Product

Clean lines do the talking in this six-prong solitaire, where a single round-brilliant moissanite is lifted on a slim, tapered sterling silver band with nothing to compete for attention. The six claws cradle the stone high off the finger so light enters from every angle, and moissanite's refractive index of 2.65 (against a diamond's 2.42) sends that light back as a bright, fiery flash. At roughly 0.5ct DEW (about 5mm round), the center reads as a graceful everyday size rather than a heavy statement, ideal as a first stackable solitaire or a delicate promise ring. Spec block: Stone: Moissanite, 0.5ct DEW / 5mm round. Cut: Round brilliant, Excellent. Color: DEF colorless in White; also offered in Blue, Pink, and Yellow. Clarity: VVS. Metal: 925 sterling silver. Setting: Six-prong solitaire. The classic white moissanite gives the truest diamond-alternative look, while the Blue, Pink, and Yellow options turn the same setting into a pop of personality for stacking or gifting. The tapered shoulders keep the band comfortable for all-day wear and let it nest neatly beside a wedding band or other thin rings. Moissanite's 9.25 Mohs hardness is second only to diamond, so the stone shrugs off the daily knocks a hand-worn ring takes without dulling. Keep it sparkling by cleaning periodically with warm water, a drop of mild soap, and a soft brush behind the stone where lotion and dust collect, then dry with a lint-free cloth. A timeless, versatile solitaire that suits proposals, anniversaries, birthdays, and quiet everyday wear alike, whether worn alone or stacked with thinner bands.
