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 Rope Moissanite Ring | 0.5ct Silver

About This Product

The band is where this ring earns its character: two strands of sterling silver wind around each other in a continuous rope twist that carries up to a six-prong head holding a single round-brilliant moissanite. That woven shank gives a vintage, hand-crafted feel that a plain band can't, while keeping the focus squarely on the lifted center stone. Moissanite's refractive index of 2.65 outshines a diamond's 2.42, so the round center throws a bright, rainbow-edged fire that suits the romantic, old-world styling. At roughly 0.5ct DEW (about 5mm round), the stone is an everyday-friendly size that reads elegant rather than oversized. Spec block: Stone: Moissanite, 0.5ct DEW / 5mm round. Cut: Round brilliant, Excellent. Color: DEF colorless in White; also offered in Blue, Pink, and Yellow. Clarity: VVS. Metal: 925 sterling silver. Setting: Six-prong solitaire on a twisted-rope band. The rope shank pairs beautifully with other thin or twisted bands for a stacked, collected look, and the Blue, Pink, and Yellow stone options let you tailor it to a birthstone mood or a bolder statement. Moissanite's 9.25 Mohs hardness lets the center stand up to daily wear without scratching, and the substantial twisted band resists bending better than a flat thin one. To care for it, clean with warm soapy water and a soft brush, paying attention to the grooves of the twist where dust gathers, then buff dry. A romantic, texture-rich alternative to the plain solitaire, ready for promises, anniversaries, birthdays, or simply adding a little everyday sparkle and woven texture to the hand.
