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.

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.

Square Moissanite Stud Earrings | Iced Screw-Back

About This Product

Built for everyday flex with hardware that stays put: a bold square cube studded edge-to-edge in a tight pave lattice of moissanite, wrapped by a raised border that carries its own row of stones down all four sides so the face reads as one solid block of ice from any angle. The grid is dense and uniform, which is what gives this the iced-out look done with real moissanite instead of foil-backed crystal. Each round stone is bead-set into the silver, and the screw-back post threads into the earring so it cannot back out through a day of wear, a gym session, or a night out. Why moissanite earns its place here: a refractive index of 2.65 against a diamond's 2.42 means this paved face throws harder, whiter fire under club light and daylight alike, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale the stones shrug off the scuffs that dull cheaper crystal. The D-E-F colorless grade keeps the whole surface bright with no yellow cast, and VVS clarity means clean stones across the entire grid. Stylist take: a square stud sits flatter and more architectural than a round solitaire, so it dresses up a crisp collar as readily as it finishes a hoodie-and-chain look. Wear the white-gold-plated finish for a colder, more clinical ice or the yellow-gold plating for warmth against deeper skin tones. Sized around 8mm square, it holds presence without tipping into costume. Specs: 0.77ct DEW moissanite per earring (1.54ct DEW total pair), D-E-F colorless, VVS clarity, refractive index 2.65, 9.25 Mohs; 925 sterling silver with white- or yellow-gold plating; screw-back posts; sold as a pair.
