Pear Drop Moissanite Y Necklace - 1.2 ct Total D Color Stones in 925 Sterling Silver, 15.7 to 17.7 in
Every gemstone, crystal, and agate we use is nature's own masterpiece, meaning no two pieces are exactly alike. We take pride in delivering a pristine IfShe creation that belongs exclusively to you.
Seven round moissanites step down each side of the chain and meet at the base, where a single pear cut stone hangs free. The V sits where a collarbone necklace normally sits, and the drop swings just below it, so the piece reads as two lengths at once.
The pear is 0.50 ct at 4.00 by 6.00 mm. The seven round stones are 0.10 ct each at 3.00 mm, which brings the total to 1.20 ct. All are D color and VVS1 clarity in 925 sterling silver, and the whole necklace weighs 3.00 g.
- 0.50 ct pear drop: 4.00 x 6.00 mm, hung to swing rather than sit flat.
- Seven graduated rounds: 0.10 ct each, 3.00 mm, set along the V.
- Adjustable chain: 40 cm plus a 5 cm extender, 15.7 to 17.7 inches.

Frequently asked questions
How is moissanite different from a diamond?
Moissanite has a higher refractive index than diamond, giving it more rainbow fire. It measures 9.25 on the Mohs scale (vs diamond's 10) and costs a fraction of the price for an equivalent visual size. It is a lab-created gem chemically distinct from diamond.
Will moissanite cloud or fade over time?
No. Moissanite does not cloud, yellow, or lose brilliance. Its sparkle is permanent and does not require special restoration over the years.
Is moissanite suitable for an engagement ring?
Yes. With Mohs 9.25 hardness, moissanite is the second-hardest known gemstone after diamond, making it an excellent choice for daily-wear engagement and wedding rings.
What setting metal do you offer?
Most moissanite styles are available in 925 sterling silver. Selected designs offer 10K or 14K gold/rose-gold plating. See the variant options on each product page.
How do I clean my moissanite ring?
Soak in warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap, gently brush with a soft toothbrush, and rinse. Pat dry with a lint-free cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners.
