The Sparkle Guide
If you’re new to moissanite or exploring fine jewellery options, these guides are the perfect place to begin.
What is Moissanite?
Moissanite is a naturally occurring mineral, silicon carbide. In its natural form, it's extraordinarily rare. The moissanite used in fine jewellery today is lab-grown, ensuring consistent quality.
Moissanite has a refractive index of 2.65–2.69, compared to diamond's 2.42.
This means it produces more fire, the rainbow-coloured light dispersion visible in direct light. Its brilliance is distinct, and many find it more visually alive than a diamond in the same setting.
The Stone
Moissanite measures 9.25–9.5 on the Mohs hardness scale.
For context, sapphire sits at 9. This makes moissanite one of the hardest gemstones available — resistant to scratching and suitable for daily wear across all jewellery types.
Moissanite does not cloud, fade, or change over time. Surface buildup from skin oils or product residue can temporarily dull the appearance, but a gentle clean restores it fully.
Colour
Bellari uses D colour moissanite, the highest colour grade, equivalent to colourless. Under any light, it reads as bright and clear.
Clarity
All Bellari stones are VVS1 clarity. Inclusions are not visible to the naked eye or under standard magnification.
Each cut has its own character. Bellari works with five: Round Brilliant, Radiant, Emerald, Oval, and Pear
The Metal
The majority of Bellari pieces are crafted in 925 sterling silver with a rhodium finish. Select Bellari pieces are also available in 10K solid gold.
925 Sterling Silver, Rhodium Plated
Solid Gold
925 Sterling Silver, Rhodium Plated
925 refers to the purity, 92.5% pure silver, alloyed with copper for structural integrity. Rhodium is applied as a surface plating. It is one of the rarest metals in the platinum group, and it serves two purposes: it protects the silver beneath from oxidisation, and it creates the bright, white-metal finish associated with fine jewellery.
Solid Gold
Select Bellari pieces are also available in 10K solid gold. Unlike plated metals, solid gold does not have a base metal beneath, the gold content runs through the piece. 10K is 41.7% pure gold, alloyed for durability. It is more resistant to wear than higher karats and does not require replating.
Caring for Your Piece
Moissanite is low-maintenance. A few habits keep it performing well.
Clean regularly
Warm water, a small amount of mild soap, and a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly, then dry with a lint-free cloth. Do this when the stone looks dull, usually every two to four weeks depending on wear frequency.
Avoid harsh exposure
Chlorine, bleach, and chemical-based cleaners can degrade metal plating over time. Remove pieces before swimming in chlorinated pools or applying exfoliating skincare products.
Store simply
Each Bellari piece arrives in a velvet box. Keep it there when not in use. Avoid storing jewellery loose together, stones can contact and scratch metal surfaces.
Getting the Fit Right
At Bellari, every piece is designed to feel intentional and effortless that starts with the perfect fit. Read more on size guide
Understanding Moissanite:
Moissanite is a naturally occurring mineral "silicon carbide" first discovered in 1893 by French scientist Henri Moissan in a meteor crater in Arizona. He initially believed the crystals were diamonds due to their brilliance.
What makes it rare:
Natural moissanite is extraordinarily rare on Earth. The crystals Dr. Moissan found were tiny fragments from a meteorite, not large enough for jewellery.
Modern moissanite:
The moissanite used in fine jewellery today is lab-grown using advanced technology that replicates the same chemical composition and crystal structure as the natural mineral. This process takes months and requires precise conditions to create gem-quality stones.
Why lab-grown:
Lab-grown moissanite allows us to create larger, flawless stones with consistent quality something impossible to source from the minuscule natural deposits. The result is a gemstone with exceptional brilliance, durability, and ethical origins.
Every Bellari piece features premium moissanite D colour (colourless), VVS1 clarity, and precision-cut for maximum fire and sparkle.
Read more on Is Moissanite Real? Everything You Need to Know
Yes. Moissanite is a real gemstone with its own distinct chemical composition (silicon carbide) and physical properties.
What makes it real:
Moissanite has a defined crystal structure, hardness rating (9.25 on the Mohs scale), and refractive properties that differentiate it from all other gemstones including diamonds.
It's not a diamond simulant or imitation, it's its own gemstone with characteristics that, in some ways, exceed diamonds (higher refractive index, more fire).
On lab-grown vs natural:
Lab-grown moissanite is chemically and physically identical to the naturally occurring mineral discovered in meteorites. The only difference is origin one is created in a controlled laboratory, the other formed in space.
The same is true for lab-grown diamonds, lab-grown sapphires, and other lab-created gemstones. The process of creation doesn't make them less "real."
Used in fine jewellery:
Moissanite is set in the same precious metals (gold, platinum, sterling silver) and crafted with the same techniques as diamonds and other fine gemstones.
At Bellari, we treat moissanite with the same care and precision as any gemstone.
Where does moissanite come from?
Natural moissanite comes from meteorites and certain types of rock formations, but these deposits are microscopic and extraordinarily rare.
The discovery:
In 1893, Dr. Henri Moissan discovered tiny silicon carbide crystals in a meteor crater in Canyon Diablo, Arizona. He initially thought they were diamonds due to their exceptional brilliance.
It took years to confirm these crystals were a new mineral later named moissanite in his honour.
Why it's lab-grown today:
Natural moissanite exists in quantities too small for jewellery. The largest natural moissanite crystal ever found measured less than 4mm not even large enough for a single earring stud.
Lab-grown moissanite replicates the same silicon carbide crystal structure through a thermal growing process that takes months under controlled conditions.
On ethical sourcing:
Because moissanite is created in laboratories, there's no mining, no environmental disruption, and complete transparency in origin. Every stone is traceable and ethically produced.

Moissanite creates intense rainbow fire in bright sunlight, particularly noticeable in direct outdoor light.
The sunlight effect:
In bright sunlight, you'll see flashes of:
These rainbow sparkles are moissanite's signature characteristic.
Why sunlight amplifies the effect:
Natural sunlight is the strongest, most complete light spectrum, far more intense than indoor lighting.
This bright white light gives moissanite maximum opportunity to bend and separate light into its component colours.
The stronger the sunlight, the more colourful the sparkle.
Indoor vs outdoor:
Compared to diamond in sunlight:
Neither is "better" they're different sparkle personalities.
What this means for wearers:
If you spend time outdoors (beach, parks, outdoor dining, hiking), moissanite's rainbow fire will be particularly noticeable.
If you love colourful dynamic sparkle, sunlight showcases moissanite beautifully.
If you prefer purely white sparkle, diamond performs differently in the same conditions.
Size consideration in bright light:
The larger the moissanite, the more surface area for light to create colourful dispersion.
Different lighting conditions:
Overcast days: Moissanite still sparkles but rainbow fire is less dramatic, diffused light creates softer effect.
Morning/evening sun: Lower angle sunlight (golden hour) creates warm-toned rainbow flashes.
Midday sun: Strongest, brightest sunlight creates most intense rainbow fire.
Shade vs direct sun: In shade, moissanite sparkles with primarily white brilliance. In direct sun, rainbow fire becomes prominent.
Durability in sunlight:
Moissanite is exceptionally durable (9.25 Mohs hardness), sun exposure won't affect the stone's structure or sparkle.
Unlike some gemstones that can fade in UV light, moissanite's brilliance is permanent regardless of sun exposure.
Safe for beach wear, outdoor activities, summer styling, sunlight won't damage moissanite.
For moissanite wearers:
Embrace the rainbow fire in sunlight, it's what makes moissanite distinctive.
The colourful sparkle is genuine gemstone behaviour, not a flaw or limitation.
Many people specifically choose moissanite because they love this dynamic outdoor sparkle.
If you prefer less rainbow fire:
Choose smaller moissanite sizes (under 0.5ct)—the effect is more subtle.
Or consider diamond if you specifically want purely white brilliance in all lighting conditions.
Moissanite's rainbow fire is inherent to the gemstone, it's part of what makes moissanite unique.
Moissanite vs Other Gemstones:
To the untrained eye, rarely can anyone tell the difference.
On appearance:
Both are colourless (when comparing D-colour moissanite to colourless diamonds), both sparkle intensely, and both are set in identical settings and metals.
The primary difference: moissanite has more fire, the rainbow flashes of colour that occur when light refracts through the stone. Diamonds create more white brilliance; moissanite creates more colourful sparkle.
Even jewellers:
Even professional jewellers sometimes need specialised testing equipment to differentiate the two. Visual inspection alone isn't definitive.
On Bellari's quality:
Every Bellari moissanite is D-colour (completely colourless) and VVS1 clarity, the same grades used for the finest diamonds. This premium quality ensures our stones match or exceed the appearance of high-quality diamonds.
Lower-grade moissanite with tints or inclusions appears noticeably different from diamonds. Our selection standards ensure this never happens.
What this means for you:
If you want a stone that looks like a diamond, Bellari's premium moissanite will deliver that. If you specifically want diamond's particular optical signature (more white light, less rainbow fire), then diamond is the choice.
Many of our customers prefer moissanite's fire, they find the extra sparkle more captivating.

Will moissanite pass a diamond tester?
Bellari's moissanite passes most thermal diamond testers, thanks to its high conductivity and premium quality.
How thermal testers work:
Basic diamond testers measure thermal conductivity, how quickly heat dissipates through the stone. Diamonds conduct heat exceptionally well, which is how these testers identify them.
High-quality moissanite also conducts heat at a similar rate, so thermal testers often register premium moissanite as "diamond."
Advanced testers:
Electrical conductivity testers can differentiate moissanite from diamond. Moissanite conducts electricity; diamonds do not.
Jewellers with advanced equipment can definitively identify moissanite, but most standard diamond testers found in retail stores will not.
On Bellari's moissanite quality:
Every Bellari piece features D-colour (completely colourless), VVS1 clarity moissanite, the highest grades available. This premium quality ensures consistent thermal properties and brilliant performance.
Lower-quality moissanite with inclusions or poor cutting may not pass thermal testers as reliably. Our stones are selected specifically for their exceptional optical and physical properties.
What this means:
If someone tests your Bellari piece with a basic diamond tester, it will likely indicate "diamond." This reflects moissanite's similar thermal properties and our commitment to premium quality stones, not that it's attempting to be a diamond.
Moissanite is its own gemstone with its own distinct characteristics, passing or failing a diamond test doesn't change what it is.

Which is better: moissanite or cubic zirconia?
Moissanite is superior in every measurable way.
Durability:
Moissanite: 9.25 on the Mohs hardness scale, extremely resistant to scratching and chipping. Suitable for daily wear indefinitely.
Cubic zirconia: 8-8.5 on the Mohs scale, softer, more prone to scratches, chips, and surface damage over time.
Brilliance:
Moissanite: Refractive index of 2.65-2.69. Creates exceptional fire and brilliance that remains permanent.
Cubic zirconia: Lower refractive index (2.15-2.18). Initially sparkles, but loses brilliance quickly as the soft surface becomes scratched and clouded from daily contact. Within months, the sparkle diminishes noticeably. The stone develops a dull, lifeless appearance that clearly signals it's not a precious gemstone.
Longevity:
Moissanite: Permanent. Will look identical in 50 years as it does today.
Cubic zirconia: Degrades rapidly. Most CZ stones lose their sparkle and become visibly cloudy within just a few months of regular wear. The surface scratches easily, creating a dull, chalky appearance that makes it obviously inexpensive. By 1-2 years, the difference is unmistakable, the stone looks nothing like it did when new.
Use in fine jewellery:
Moissanite is used in fine jewellery set in precious metals. Cubic zirconia is typically used in fashion jewellery.
At Bellari, we use only moissanite, it's the only gemstone that meets our standards for quality, durability, and lasting beauty.
Moissanite sparkles more than diamonds - measurably so.
On brilliance:
Moissanite has a refractive index of 2.65-2.69, compared to diamond's 2.42. This means moissanite bends light more dramatically, creating more fire (rainbow flashes) and brilliance (white light reflection).
In direct sunlight or bright lighting, moissanite's sparkle is immediately noticeable - more colourful, more intense than diamond.
What this looks like:
Diamonds create white sparkle with subtle rainbow flashes.
Moissanite creates bold rainbow fire alongside white brilliance - more dramatic, more colourful.
Some prefer diamond's subtlety. Many find moissanite's fire more captivating.
Can you tell the difference between moissanite and diamond?
Most people cannot. Even jewellers need tools.
The differences that exist:
Fire: Moissanite displays more rainbow sparkle (fire) than diamonds. In bright lighting, this becomes more noticeabl, more colourful flashes.
Refractive index: Moissanite has a higher refractive index (2.65-2.69 vs diamond's 2.42), meaning it bends light more dramatically.
Hardness: Diamonds rate 10 on the Mohs scale; moissanite rates 9.25. Both are extremely durable, but diamond is slightly harder.
How to tell them apart:
Thermal diamond testers often cannot distinguish moissanite from diamond because both conduct heat similarly.
Advanced electrical conductivity testers can differentiate them, moissanite conducts electricity differently than diamond.
Visual inspection alone, even by professionals, is unreliable.
On Bellari's quality:
Our D-colour, VVS1 clarity moissanite is cut and polished to the same exacting standards as fine diamonds. This premium quality makes visual differentiation virtually impossible.
Lower-grade moissanite with colour tints or visible inclusions is easier to distinguish from diamonds. Our selection ensures this never happens.
In everyday wear:
When set in jewellery and worn, the differences are subtle enough that most people even those examining your jewellery closely won't identify it as moissanite unless you tell them.
Quality & Durability:
Will moissanite lose its sparkle?
No. Moissanite's brilliance is permanent.
Why sparkle is permanent:
Sparkle comes from how the stone's facets refract and reflect light. This is determined by the crystal structure and cut, both of which are permanent.
Moissanite doesn't change chemically or structurally over time, so the way it interacts with light remains identical indefinitely.
What can dull sparkle temporarily:
Surface buildup from daily wear, oils from skin, lotions, soap, makeup. This creates a film over the facets that reduces light return.
A simple cleaning removes this buildup and restores full sparkle immediately.
Compared to other stones:
Unlike cubic zirconia (which scratches easily and loses sparkle permanently) or softer gemstones that can develop surface wear, moissanite's 9.25 hardness means it resists scratching and maintains its polished facets.
Long-term expectation:
Your Bellari moissanite will sparkle with the same intensity in 20 years as it does today, provided you clean it regularly to remove surface buildup.
Will moissanite tarnish over time?
No. Moissanite itself never tarnishes, it's the metal setting that may require care.
On the stone:
Moissanite is silicon carbide. It doesn't oxidise, corrode, or tarnish under any conditions. The stone will maintain its colour and brilliance permanently.
On the metal:
Sterling silver (rhodium-plated): The rhodium plating prevents tarnish. If the plating wears through over years, the underlying silver may develop tarnish, but this is the metal, not the moissanite. The plating can be renewed by a jeweller.
Gold (10K, 14K, 18K): Gold does not tarnish. It may develop a patina or surface dulling from oils and wear, but this cleans away easily.
Platinum: Does not tarnish.
Cleaning:
If your piece appears dull, it's likely surface buildup on the metal or stones. Warm water, mild soap, and a soft brush restore brilliance to both the moissanite and the metal.

Does moissanite get cloudy over time?
No. Premium quality moissanite does not cloud, dull, or change appearance over time.
Why cloudiness doesn't happen:
Moissanite is silicon carbide, a stable, permanent crystal structure. It doesn't degrade, oxidise, or change chemically over years or decades.
If your moissanite appears less brilliant, it's surface buildup (oils, lotions, soap residue), not the stone itself clouding. A simple cleaning restores full brilliance.
On Bellari's quality standards:
Lower-quality moissanite with inclusions or poor cutting can appear cloudy from the start, but this is a quality issue at the time of creation, not something that develops over time.
Every Bellari moissanite is VVS1 clarity—virtually no inclusions, and D colour (completely colourless). We select only the highest grades to ensure permanent brilliance.
This is why quality matters: premium moissanite maintains perfect clarity indefinitely, whilst lower grades may appear dull even when new.
How to maintain clarity:
Clean your moissanite weekly with warm water, mild soap, and a soft brush. This removes buildup and keeps the stone sparkling exactly as it did when new.
Read more in Does Moissanite Get Cloudy Over Time?
Is moissanite suitable for everyday wear?
Yes. Moissanite is one of the most durable gemstones available.
Durability:
At 9.25 on the Mohs hardness scale, moissanite is harder than sapphire (9.0) and nearly as hard as diamond (10). It resists scratching, chipping, and abrasion from daily activities.
Heat resistance:
Moissanite withstands high temperatures without damage, higher than most other gemstones. You can wear it whilst cooking, in hot climates, near heat sources without concern.
Chemical resistance:
Household chemicals, chlorine, saltwater, moissanite is unaffected. The metal setting (silver, gold) requires more care than the stone itself.
What this means in practice:
You can wear your Bellari moissanite jewellery daily, through work, exercise, errands, sleep (though we suggest removing jewellery at night for comfort and to preserve metal settings).
Our pieces are designed to be lived in, not stored away.
Care recommendations:
Remove during vigorous exercise or manual work to protect the metal settings and clasps, not the stones themselves.
Clean weekly to maintain brilliance.

Care & Maintenance:
How do I clean moissanite jewellery?
Warm water, mild soap, soft brush. It's simple and takes less than 5 minutes.
The process:
What to avoid:
Harsh chemicals: Bleach, ammonia, or abrasive cleaners can damage metal finishes.
Ultrasonic cleaners: Whilst safe for moissanite, the vibrations can loosen prong settings over time. Hand cleaning is gentler on the overall piece.
Rough materials: Avoid paper towels or rough cloths that can scratch metal finishes.
How often:
Weekly if worn daily. Monthly if worn occasionally.
Regular cleaning maintains Bellari's premium moissanite at its full brilliance, the D-colour and VVS1 clarity we select for ensures your stones sparkle intensely when properly maintained.
Professional cleaning:
Any jeweller can professionally clean moissanite using the same methods used for diamonds. This isn't necessary frequently, but it's an option if you prefer.
Read more in How to Clean and Care for Your Moissanite Jewellery
How do I care for my moissanite jewellery?
Clean regularly, store properly, and remove during activities that stress the metal settings.
Daily care:
Remove before applying lotions, perfumes, or hairspray. These create buildup that dulls brilliance.
Put your jewellery on last when getting ready, after makeup and styling products.
When to remove:
Sleep: Removes stress on clasps and settings. Your pieces last longer.
Swimming: Chlorine and saltwater don't harm moissanite, but they can affect metal finishes.
Manual work: Protects both the stones and settings from impact and catching.
Vigorous exercise: Prevents damage to clasps and chains from movement and perspiration.
Storage:
Store each piece separately in its Bellari pouch or a soft-lined jewellery box. This prevents pieces from scratching each other.
Keep jewellery dry and away from direct sunlight (to preserve metal finishes, not the moissanite).
Inspection:
Check prong settings and clasps every few months to ensure everything remains secure. If anything feels loose, contact us immediately.
Long-term care:
With proper care, your Bellari moissanite jewellery will look identical in decades as it does today.
Choosing Your Piece:
How should a tennis bracelet fit?
A tennis bracelet should rest comfortably against the wrist with slight movement, neither sliding over the hand nor sitting too tightly.
The ideal fit:
Measure your wrist where the bracelet will sit (just below the wrist bone). Add 1-2 centimetres depending on your preference:
The bracelet should slide slightly when you move your wrist, but not so much that it catches on clothing or feels insecure.
Our sizing:
We offer four lengths:
When in doubt, we suggest measuring rather than guessing. The fit affects how the piece sits and moves.

How do I choose the right moissanite jewellery?
Consider three factors: what you'll wear it with, how often you'll wear it, and which pieces bring you joy.
For everyday wear:
Tennis bracelets - Our most versatile piece. Works with everything from casual weekend wear to formal occasions.
Stud earrings - Classic, comfortable, appropriate for any setting. Choose from round, oval, emerald, radiant, or pear cuts.
Eternity bands - Worn daily as wedding bands, anniversary bands, or simply because they're beautiful.
For special occasions:
Tennis necklaces - Elegant for formal events, weddings, or evenings out.
Tennis sets - The matched necklace and bracelet create a complete, considered look.
For layering and stacking:
Tennis bracelets stack beautifully together or with watches.
Eternity bands can be stacked multiple bands for a dramatic effect.
Stud earrings work in multiple piercings, pair different cuts for visual interest.
On sizing:
Each product page includes detailed sizing guidance. When uncertain, reach out to us at hello@bellari.com.au
We regularly help customers choose their perfect fit.
Should I choose 16" or 18" for a tennis necklace?
16 inches sits along the collarbone. 18 inches sits lower on the chest.
The most considered choice is 16 inches, designed to sit just along the collarbone and create a clean, refined line. It is the length most clients are naturally drawn to, as it frames the neckline with quiet precision.
An 18 inch length offers a softer drape, sitting slightly lower on the chest. It lends itself well to layering, especially when paired with finer chains or a single pendant.
On necklines:
16" works with strapless, off-shoulder, V-neck, and scoop necks. The necklace frames the opening rather than falling into it.
18" works with higher necklines, crew necks, or when layering with other chains. The additional length prevents crowding at the collarbone.
For different neck lengths:
Shorter necks: 18 inches creates visual length. The lower sit point elongates the neckline rather than cutting it horizontally.
Longer necks: Both 16" and 18" work. 16" creates a deliberate choker effect that emphasizes the neck itself. 18" sits more traditionally at the base of the throat.
Average necks: 16 inches is the classic proportion - sitting where a tennis necklace has traditionally sat for decades.

What's the difference between moissanite cuts?
Each cut creates a different optical effect and aesthetic.
The classic. 58 facets create maximum fire and brilliance. This cut has remained the standard for over a century because the geometry is simply correct. Works for every style and occasion.
Elongated brilliance with a vintage-inspired aesthetic. The elongated shape creates visual length, particularly flattering for those with round facial structures or shorter fingers.
Step-cut facets create a "hall of mirrors" effect rather than fire. Elegant, architectural, understated. For those who prefer refined sophistication over sparkle.
Combines brilliant and step cuts for exceptional fire. Bold, geometric, statement-making. Maximum sparkle in a distinctive shape.
Teardrop silhouette with brilliant sparkle. Delicate and romantic. The point creates beautiful movement in earrings.
Which to choose:
If you're uncertain, round brilliant is the most versatile and timeless.
How do I choose the right moissanite stud earring size?
Consider three factors: lifestyle, face proportion, and personal preference.
Lifestyle:
Face and ear proportion:
Personal style:
Our recommendation:
If this is your first pair of moissanite studs or you're unsure, choose our round 0.3ct (4.5mm). This size has remained the standard because it simply works - appropriate for every occasion, flattering on everyone, comfortable for all-day wear.
What size moissanite studs are best for everyday wear?
4.5mm (0.3ct) is the classic everyday size - refined, comfortable, and universally flattering.
Understanding Carat vs. Size:
It's important to know that 0.3ct refers to the weight of the moissanite stone, not its physical size. The actual diameter of our 0.3ct round studs is 4.5mm which is the most classic, timeless size for everyday stud earrings.
Why 4.5mm works for daily wear:
Professional settings: Visible without being distracting. Appropriate for conservative workplaces whilst still making a statement.
All-day comfort: Light enough to forget you're wearing them. No pulling on the earlobe, no catching on clothing or hair.
Versatile styling: Works with everything from casual weekend wear to formal evening occasions. You don't need to change your earrings based on the event.
Proportionate to the ear: 4.5mm sits in the sweet spot - substantial enough to catch light beautifully, small enough not to overwhelm the ear or face.
On larger sizes:
Our collection includes larger statement studs in various cuts:
Oval-Cut Studs - Available in 0.5ct (6x4mm) and 1ct (7x5mm). The elongated shape creates elegant visual length.
Emerald-Cut Studs - Available in 0.5ct (4.5mm x 6mm) and 1ct (5mm x 7mm). Step-cut facets create a sophisticated 'hall of mirrors' effect.
Radiant-Cut Studs - Available in 0.5ct (4.5mm x 6mm) and 1ct (5mm x 7mm). Combines brilliant and step cuts for maximum fire and geometric beauty.
Pear-Cut Studs - Available in 0.5ct (4mm x 6mm) and 1ct (5mm x 8mm). Delicate teardrop shape with brilliant sparkle.
These larger sizes (6-7mm) are stunning for evenings, special occasions, or those who want their earrings to be a focal point.
Our recommendation:
If this is your first pair of moissanite studs or you're unsure, choose our round 0.3ct (4.5mm). This size has remained the standard because it simply works - appropriate for every occasion, flattering on everyone, comfortable for all-day wear.
Occasions & Gifting:
Is moissanite jewellery a good gift?
Yes, particularly for milestone occasions that deserve something lasting.
