The cluster is soldered into the chain at both ends, which means it sits where you put it — centered, face-forward, flat on the skin. Pendants spin and end up backwards; this does not. It also sits high enough on the chest to layer a longer chain beneath it.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe marquise stones angle outward like a pair of wings, and the rounds fill the gaps, so the piece tapers into the chain instead of stopping abruptly.

At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it is harder than every gemstone except diamond, which makes it a sensible choice for something worn daily. Its refractive index is actually higher than diamond's, which is why it throws more rainbow fire, and that shows most on small accent stones like the ones framing this center.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOur guide to \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aquamarise.com\/blogs\/journal\/moissanite-meaning-symbolism-and-spiritual-properties\"\u003emoissanite meaning\u003c\/a\u003e covers the stone in more depth, and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aquamarise.com\/blogs\/journal\/moissanite-vs-cubic-zirconia-key-differences-you-need-to-know\"\u003emoissanite versus cubic zirconia\u003c\/a\u003e explains why the two are not interchangeable — every stone in this necklace is moissanite, not CZ.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eMetal and Chain\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eSolid \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aquamarise.com\/blogs\/journal\/what-is-925-sterling-silver\"\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/a\u003e throughout — cluster and chain — with a rhodium finish, the same platinum-group metal used on white gold.
