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.

Vintage Square Halo Moissanite Pendant & Stud Set

About This Product

A coordinated set that reads as fine jewelry from across the room: a round brilliant moissanite sits centered in each piece, framed by a square halo with softly cusped corners and a full pavé surround. The pendant pairs a 1.0ct DEW center (about 6.5mm) on a fluted V-bail and fine cable chain, while the matching studs carry the same square-halo design at a daintier scale, sitting close to the lobe on secure friction posts. Moissanite earns the look: a refractive index of 2.65 throws more fire than a diamond's 2.42, and a 9.25 Mohs hardness keeps every facet crisp through daily wear. The stones are DEF colorless and VVS clarity, so the white-on-white pavé stays clean rather than tinted. Stylist's note — a halo set like this is the easy answer for a bride who wants matching earrings and a necklace without renting a vault: the square frame photographs larger than the center stone alone, so a 1.0ct DEW pendant carries the visual weight of something well above it. Wear the studs solo to the office and add the pendant for evening, or stack the full set for a wedding or anniversary. Crafted in 925 sterling silver with a rhodium-look white finish for a bright, tarnish-resistant surface, the cable chain is included with the pendant. The 0.5ct DEW option (about 5mm center) offers the same silhouette in a more understated size. Keep both pieces dry, store separately, and a soft cloth restores the shine. Specs: round brilliant moissanite, DEF / VVS, 1.0ct or 0.5ct DEW per stone, square pavé halo, 925 sterling silver, rhodium-look white finish, cable chain included.
