Marquise Moissanite Stud Earrings in 925 Sterling Silver - Pair of 3 x 6 mm Half-Bezel Cartilage Studs, Heart Backs, 6 or 8 mm Post
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.
These stud earrings in 925 sterling silver each hold one 3 x 6 mm marquise moissanite in a half bezel.
A smooth silver band follows one long side of the marquise and curls under its lower point, while the other side of the stone is left open to the light. Worn upright it looks like a slim leaf; tilted along the helix it follows the line of the ear. A polished heart-shaped back sits behind each one.
- Lab-grown moissanite: marquise cut, 3 x 6 mm and 0.30 ct in each earring, D colour, VVS1 clarity.
- Half bezel: a polished silver edge along one side of the stone and around its lower tip.
- Two post lengths: 6 mm or 8 mm - choose from the Size option on this page. 8 mm suits most earlobes; 6 mm sits closer on thinner cartilage such as the helix or tragus.
- Sold as a pair: two matching studs, each with its own heart-shaped back.

Moissanite is its own brilliant gemstone — not an imitation diamond. It throws even more fire than a diamond, rates 9.25 on the Mohs scale for confident daily wear, and costs a fraction of the price. Every IfShe moissanite is lab-created, conflict-free and clearly disclosed.
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 durable enough for everyday wear?
Yes. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale, moissanite is the second-hardest known gemstone after diamond, so it resists scratches and keeps its sparkle through daily wear.
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 jewellery?
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.
