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 | 1ct DEW Silver Ring

About This Product

This twisted bypass solitaire frames a single round brilliant-cut moissanite (1ct DEW, 6.5mm) in a tension-style half-bezel, so the stone sits slightly off-axis at the point where the two ends of the shank cross and pass one another. Moissanite carries a 2.65 refractive index against a diamond's 2.42, so the 57-facet round throws noticeably more fire under direct light. The center stone is graded DEF colorless with VVS clarity, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it resists the everyday scratches and clouding that dull softer simulants over time. The band is 925 sterling silver finished in a bright white rhodium plating that matches the colorless center and resists tarnish. The split, crossover shank tapers toward a slim profile at the back of the finger, which keeps a 1ct presence comfortable for daily wear rather than feeling top-heavy or catching on fabric. Styling note: a bypass setting reads more contemporary than a straight four-prong solitaire, and the diagonal seat catches light from the side as your hand moves — it photographs well in natural light and stacks cleanly against a plain band worn on the same finger. Choose the colorless white center for a classic engagement look, or pick the pink, yellow, or blue moissanite for a fashion-forward statement. Offered in US ring sizes 4.5 through 8.5 so you can match your everyday fit. Specs: round brilliant moissanite, 1ct DEW (6.5mm) center, DEF color, VVS clarity, refractive index 2.65, 9.25 Mohs; 925 sterling silver, white rhodium plating; tension-style bypass setting.
