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.

Sliding-Stone Pavé Bar Moissanite Necklace

About This Product

Movement is the magic here. Inside a slim, pavé-framed open capsule, three round moissanite stones sit on a hidden track and glide as you move, turning the classic bar pendant into something kinetic and quietly playful. The trio totals roughly 0.36 carat DEW, and the continuous pavé outline wraps the bar in a frame of light so the center never stops shimmering. Every stone leans on moissanite's 2.65 refractive index for noticeably more fire than diamond's 2.42, with a 9.25 Mohs hardness that keeps the facets crisp through daily wear. The bar floats from a delicate cable chain punctuated by bezel-set moissanite stations, so the piece sparkles from collar to center rather than at a single point. Finished in 18K white gold plating over 925 sterling silver, the white metal stays bright and reads clean against both warm and cool skin tones. Stylist's take: the horizontal bar sits flat and low on the collarbone, making it an easy everyday layering anchor; pair it with a thin solitaire pendant on a longer chain for a graduated stack, or wear it solo with a crew neckline to let the moving stones do the talking. The kinetic detail is a natural conversation starter and an easy gift for someone who finds static jewelry a little too still. Lightweight at about 3.35 grams, it transitions from desk to dinner without weighing on the neck. Specs: ~0.36ct DEW total (round moissanite, DEF colorless, VVS clarity), sliding-stone pavé bar pendant, bezel-set station chain, 18K white gold over 925 sterling silver, refractive index 2.65, 9.25 Mohs, ~3.35g.
