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.

Single-Row Moissanite Hoop Earrings – 1.8ct DEW 925 Silver

About This Product

Inside-out hoops solve the everyday-earring problem: brilliance that faces forward and keeps sparkling along the inner curve, so the moissanite reads from every angle, not just head-on. A single continuous row of round-brilliant stones traces the full 25mm hoop in shared-prong settings, keeping the 2.0mm band slim so light does the work. Each 2.3mm stone is cut to a refractive index of 2.65 versus a diamond's 2.42, which is why the fire here flashes harder than mined stone under the same light. The DEF colorless grade keeps the line bright white against silver, and VVS clarity means the eye finds no inclusions across the whole row. At 1.8ct DEW per earring the scale lands between a stud and a statement piece, big enough to register across a room, light enough at 4.17g the pair to wear from a desk to dinner without weighing the lobe. The hinged snap-bar closure clicks flush and sits secure, so there's no loose post hanging behind a busy day. Styling take: because the stones run the entire visible arc rather than stopping at the front, these photograph well in profile and pair cleanly with an updo or pulled-back hair where a half-pave hoop would show bare metal. Set in 925 sterling silver and offered in white-gold, yellow-gold and rose-gold plating, each finish shifts how warm the line reads. Hand-set, hypoallergenic posts, an everyday hoop that earns repeat wear. Specs: 1.8ct DEW per earring, 2.3mm round moissanite, DEF color, VVS clarity, 25mm hoop, 2.0mm band, 9.25 Mohs, 925 sterling silver, hinged closure.
