Absolutely! Moissanite earrings deliver brilliance, durability, ethical sourcing, and affordability that's genuinely difficult to match. At 9.25 on the Mohs hardness scale, they're harder than sapphire and perfect for everyday wear. Unlike other gemstones that can cloud or fade, moissanite maintains its sparkle indefinitely.

They're 100% lab-created with zero mining impact and no conflict concerns. Our moissanite growers are exceptional at their craft, so you know exactly where your earrings come from. We only offer D VVS1 grade (colourless, virtually flawless) because quality matters, and once you see that incredible fire in person, you'll understand why we love them so much.

Super easy. Clean them regularly with warm soapy water and a soft toothbrush - that's it. For deeper cleaning, use an ultrasonic cleaner or take them to a jeweller. Moissanite won't cloud, fade, or lose its sparkle over time like other stones. Store them in a soft pouch to prevent scratching other jewellery. Avoid harsh chemicals, but don't stress too much - they're built to last. See our detailed care guide.
Yes, moissanite earrings can safely get wet. They're highly durable and water-resistant. Just avoid chlorinated water for long periods and dry them properly afterwards. Over time, external materials can build up on the stone, so you'll need to clean them at home with warm soapy water or use an ultrasonic cleaner to keep them sparkling. Read our complete care guide.
Never. Moissanite stones will never turn green or change colour. The only thing that might cause skin discolouration is poor-quality gold, but our sterling silver, gold plated, and 9K, 14K, and 18K gold settings are high-quality and hypoallergenic.
