Stud Earrings 925 Sterling Silver 18 Gold Moissanite Stud Earrings

Moissanite Stud Earrings in 925 Silver, 0.5 or 1 Carat

D-E colour moissanite in a hearts and arrows cut, set in 925 sterling silver with 18K gold detail. Moissanite outperforms diamond on brilliance - it has a higher refractive index, which is why these throw noticeably more fire than cubic zirconia at the same size.

Why Moissanite

• D-E extreme white - the top of the colourless grading range, with no yellow cast.
• Hearts and arrows cut - a precision cut that produces a symmetrical pattern under light.
• Harder than most gems - second only to diamond, so it resists scratching and clouding.
• Two sizes - 0.5 carat for everyday, 1 carat for a statement stud.
• 925 silver setting - solid sterling rather than plated base metal.

Product Details

• Cut: Hearts and arrows, round
• Sizes: 0.5 carat or 1 carat

Choosing Your Size

0.5 carat sits discreetly and suits daily wear including work. 1 carat is noticeably larger and reads as an occasion or milestone piece. Both use the same setting style.

Care

Moissanite stays brilliant but films over with soap, hand cream and hairspray, which dulls it fast. Clean with warm water, a drop of washing-up liquid and a soft brush behind the stone where residue collects.

FAQ

Is moissanite the same as diamond?
No. It is a different mineral, lab-created, and actually more brilliant than diamond - though it is a distinct stone, not a diamond substitute in the gemmological sense.

Will it cloud over time?
No. Moissanite does not cloud the way cheaper simulants do; it only needs cleaning.
