Frequently asked questions
What is moissanite?
Moissanite is a gemstone made of silicon carbide. It was discovered in 1893 by the French chemist Henri Moissan in a meteorite crater in Arizona. Natural moissanite is extremely rare, so all moissanite used in jewellery today is created in a laboratory.
Moissanite is not an imitation of another stone. It is a gemstone in its own right, with its own properties: high hardness, a high refractive index and strong brilliance.
Is LunNoire moissanite GRA certified?
Yes. Every LunNoire moissanite comes with a GRA certificate. The certificate documents the stone's characteristics, including colour grade, clarity, cut and size. It is included in the box with your jewellery.
Can moissanite be worn every day?
Yes. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale, moissanite is one of the hardest gemstones used in jewellery. It stands up well to everyday wear, and the stone's colour and brilliance do not change over time.
How do I care for my jewellery?
Take your jewellery off for exercise, swimming and cleaning, and before applying perfume or lotion. Clean the stone with lukewarm water, a little mild soap and a soft toothbrush, then dry it with a soft cloth. Store each piece separately in its box to avoid scratches.
The plating can wear over time with daily use and can be renewed by a goldsmith.
