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.

Snowflake Halo Moissanite Drop Earrings

About This Product

Catch the light with every turn of your head. These drop earrings suspend a round brilliant moissanite inside a six-point, snowflake-style prong basket, so the setting itself reads like crystalline frost fanning out around the stone. Each gem swings from a slender French hook ear wire trimmed with a vertical row of pave accents, carrying sparkle from lobe to drop as the earrings sway. The open snowflake gallery lifts the moissanite off the ear and lets light flood in from behind, while a 2.65 refractive index drives noticeably more fire than a diamond's 2.42. DEF colorless grading keeps each stone bright and white, and VVS clarity means no inclusions break up the return of light. At a 9.25 Mohs hardness, moissanite shrugs off daily wear, so these move easily from office to evening. Sizing is offered in two DEW weights per earring: 0.5ct DEW (5mm) for a delicate everyday glint, and 1.0ct DEW (6.5mm) for a fuller, more dramatic drop. Stylist note: the elongated French hook and floating snowflake silhouette flatter shorter haircuts and updos, where the swing of the drop stays visible; pair with a thin pendant rather than a statement necklace so the earrings lead. The settings are crafted in 925 sterling silver finished in 18K white gold plating for a crisp, rhodium-bright shine that resists tarnish with normal care. Spec block: round brilliant moissanite, DEF color, VVS clarity, 2.65 RI, 9.25 Mohs; 0.5ct DEW (5mm) or 1.0ct DEW (6.5mm) per earring; 925 sterling silver, 18K white gold plated French hooks with pave accents.
