What is moissanite jewellery?
Moissanite jewellery uses moissanite gemstones, which are known for strong sparkle and clarity. At De Lumen, moissanite appears in pieces such as Drop Hoop Earrings, the Classic Moissanite Necklace, and the Eternal Heart Moissanite Necklace.
Why choose moissanite?
Moissanite is popular for jewellery because it offers bright fire, a clear look and strong everyday wearability. It is commonly chosen by customers who want a luminous gemstone for earrings, necklaces or gifts without choosing a mined diamond.
Independent gem reference
The Gemological Institute of America describes synthetic moissanite as silicon carbide and identifies it as distinct from diamond in gem testing. This helps explain why De Lumen product pages describe moissanite as moissanite rather than as diamond. Reference: GIA Gems & Gemology on synthetic moissanite.
What materials does De Lumen use?
De Lumen jewellery product pages list the material details for each piece. Current moissanite pieces include details such as S925 sterling silver, white gold plating and D Color moissanite where those specifications apply.

How to care for moissanite and S925 sterling silver
Keep moissanite jewellery dry where possible, remove it before swimming or using harsh chemicals, and store each piece separately. Wipe gently with a soft cloth after wearing to help protect S925 sterling silver and plated finishes.
