FAQs
Moissanite is a rare gemstone made from silicon carbide, first discovered in a meteor crater in Arizona in 1893. Because natural moissanite is so scarce, all gemstones used in fine jewellery today are grown in laboratories that recreate the same natural crystal structure.
It ranks 9.25 on the Mohs scale, just below diamond at 10, and has a higher refractive index, giving it remarkable brilliance and fire. Unlike cubic zirconia, moissanite will not cloud or scratch over time and retains its clarity indefinitely.
Even experts often need specialised tools to tell moissanite and diamond apart, especially in smaller stones. It offers the same lasting beauty and durability as a diamond, without the inflated pricing or environmental impact of mined stones.
No. While some moissanite is sold with certificates, GIA does not officially recognise or grade moissanite, so these documents do not carry the same meaning as they do for diamonds. We prefer to be transparent and do not include them.
We recommend removing your jewellery before showering. Water, soap, and shampoo can build up around stones and settings, which may dull finishes and reduce sparkle over time. This applies even to fine jewellery, and many jewellers recommend removing engagement rings before showering for the same reason.
Our pieces are crafted on a sterling silver base and finished in 18k gold plating, 18k gold vermeil, or rhodium, depending on the design. These finishes are chosen for their refined appearance and ability to support precise stone setting. Materials such as stainless steel are often marketed as shower safe, but they are used because they prioritise corrosion resistance over craftsmanship. Stainless steel lacks the weight, softness, and workability required for fine jewellery and detailed settings.
To preserve the finish and maintain the beauty of your jewellery, we recommend removing it before showering, swimming, or applying personal care products.
