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.

Teardrop Halo Moissanite Drop Pendant Necklace

About This Product

A teardrop drop pendant built for movement and light. A round brilliant moissanite sits at the heart of an open, lantern-shaped frame, ringed by a pave halo that widens its visual footprint, while a second prong-set stone floats at the bail so the whole pendant elongates the neckline as it sways. Because the metalwork is cut away around the center, light enters from front and back rather than reflecting off a solid backing, and with a refractive index of 2.65 versus a diamond's 2.42 the stone returns noticeably more fire for its size. The moissanite is graded D-E-F colorless with VVS clarity and reads icy white in daylight and under warm indoor lighting alike. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it shrugs off the scuffs and clouding that dull cubic zirconia within months, so it stays bright through daily wear. Stylist's note: the elongated teardrop is a flattering choice for round or square necklines and on a 16-18in chain it lands just below the collarbone, sitting as easily over a tee as a silk blouse. The center is offered as a 0.5ct DEW (5mm) or 1ct DEW (6.5mm) round; moissanite carat is measured as diamond-equivalent weight, so a 1ct DEW gives you the face-up spread you expect from a one-carat diamond. The setting is 925 sterling silver finished in bright rhodium-look white plating for a cool, reflective shine, with a matching cable chain and lobster clasp. Specs: round moissanite, 0.5-1ct DEW (5-6.5mm), D-E-F / VVS, RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs, 925 sterling silver, white plating, halo + pave open teardrop drop pendant on cable chain.
