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 Solitaire Moissanite Stud Earrings | Six-Prong

About This Product

The earring everyone should own at least once: a single round-brilliant moissanite lifted high in a six-prong basket so light strikes the stone from every direction. The raised head keeps the girdle off the lobe, letting moissanite's refractive index of 2.65 (against a diamond's 2.42) throw noticeably more fire than a diamond of the same size. Each stone is graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity, so it reads bright and icy-white in daylight and under evening light alike. Choose 2.0ct total pair (1.0ct DEW per earring, 6.5mm) for a polished everyday stud, or 4.0ct total pair (2.0ct DEW per earring, 8mm) when you want a face-filling sparkle that carries across a room. Set in 925 sterling silver with a bright white-gold-tone plating, the six-prong head is the classic, secure choice — six points hold the crown more evenly than four, so the stone sits level and stays put through daily wear. Styling note: round solitaire studs are the one earring that works with everything, from a bare neckline to a stack of ear curation pieces; size up to the 2.0ct DEW if studs are your signature and you want them seen. Butterfly backs secure each post. Because moissanite measures 9.25 on the Mohs scale, the surface resists scratching and stays clear with nothing more than a quick wipe. Spec block: round brilliant cut | 1.0ct or 2.0ct DEW per earring (6.5mm / 8mm) | DEF colorless | VVS clarity | refractive index 2.65 | 9.25 Mohs | 925 sterling silver, white-gold-tone plating | six-prong basket setting | butterfly backs.
