Buying guide

What moissanite offers

Moissanite is silicon carbide, a near-colorless gem rated 9.25 on the Mohs scale, so it resists scratches and suits daily wear. It has very high brilliance and strong fire, which shows up as flashes of rainbow color in sunlight. It also costs much less than most white gems of the same size, which makes larger studs easier to reach.

How a cushion cut moissanite stud looks

The cushion cut is a soft square with rounded corners and broad facets. Those wide facets play up moissanite's fire, so a cushion stud shows bold, colorful flashes. The basket setting holds the stone on prongs joined by an open cage beneath, keeping the moissanite close to the ear while letting light in from the sides.

Size and metal

Smaller sizes work for every day and for second piercings; larger sizes stand out at events.

  • White gold, platinum or silver gives a cool, bright frame.
  • Yellow or rose gold warms the setting; gold comes in 10K, 14K or 18K.
  • Platinum is dense and naturally white, kind to sensitive ears.

Prices start under $200, and most options sit just under $400.
