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.

Twisted Bypass Moissanite Solitaire Ring | 1ct DEW Silver

About This Product

A single round brilliant-cut moissanite floats inside a four-prong basket where the band sweeps past it in an S-shaped bypass twist, giving this solitaire a sense of motion you do not get from a straight shank. The center stone is graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity, so it reads bright white against the polished 925 sterling silver under everyday light. Moissanite earns its sparkle honestly: a refractive index of 2.65 versus a diamond's 2.42 sends more light back to the eye, which is why the table here breaks into the bold rainbow flashes visible in the photo. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it sits just below diamond, so the stone resists the scratches and daily knocks that dull softer simulants. The 1ct DEW center measures roughly 6.5mm across — a true one-carat diamond-equivalent presence, not a half-carat stand-in. Expert take: the bypass shank reads slimmer than a classic cathedral setting, so it flatters longer fingers and stacks cleanly beside a plain wedding band without the two profiles fighting. The open curve also lets light reach the pavilion from the side, adding to the fire. The rhodium-toned white silver keeps the focus on the stone rather than the metal. Choose your ring size from 4.5 to 8.5. A quiet, modern alternative to the standard solitaire that still works as an engagement or anniversary ring. Specs: 1ct DEW (6.5mm) round brilliant moissanite | DEF color | VVS clarity | RI 2.65 | 9.25 Mohs | 925 sterling silver, rhodium-toned finish | four-prong bypass solitaire setting.
