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.

Wide Three-Row Pavé Moissanite Huggie Earrings – 0.82ct DEW

About This Product

These wide huggies wrap the lobe in three parallel rows of pavé moissanite, so each hoop reads as a solid band of light rather than a single accent. There is no center stone and none is needed: the 6.5mm domed face is filled edge to edge with round melee, throwing a dense, finely textured sparkle that follows the curve of the 17mm hoop. At 0.82ct DEW per earring (1.64ct DEW total for the pair) the stones are DEF colorless and VVS clarity, the same grades you would specify in fine bridal jewelry. Moissanite's 2.65 refractive index outperforms a diamond's 2.42, which is why three tight rows of small stones produce so much fire from such a compact frame, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale the facet edges stay crisp through everyday wear. The hinged snap closure hugs the lobe flat and secure, making these an easy all-day hoop that still carries enough presence for evening. Styling take: a fully paved three-row huggie is the workhorse hoop most jewelry boxes are missing. Worn solo it dresses up a plain ear; worn as the anchor in a curated stack of studs and smaller hoops it ties the whole ear together without competing. Choose rose, yellow, or white plating over 925 sterling silver to match the rest of your stack. Each earring weighs roughly 4.8g, substantial enough to feel like real metal, light enough to wear from desk to dinner. Specs: 0.82ct DEW each / 1.64ct pair, three-row pavé, 6.5mm face, 17mm hoop, DEF/VVS moissanite, RI 2.65, 9.25 Mohs, 925 sterling silver, hinged snap closure.
