From a distance you see the shape, up close the stonework.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Moissanite Actually Is\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoissanite is silicon carbide, a mineral so rare in nature that it is grown in a laboratory. So it is not glass and not cubic zirconia, but a gemstone in its own right. \u003cstrong\u003eOn the Mohs hardness scale moissanite scores 9.25\u003c\/strong\u003e, against 10 for diamond and 8 to 8.5 for cubic zirconia. In a clover with many small stones that matters even more: the edges of small stones are the first to wear when the material is soft, and that is where the dull look begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Moissanite Sparkles More Than Diamond\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is physics, not a sales line. Moissanite has a refractive index of around 2.65 against 2.42 for diamond, so more white light comes back. The deciding figure is dispersion: 0.104 against 0.044 for diamond. \u003cstrong\u003eThat is more than double, and dispersion is exactly what produces the colored flashes\u003c\/strong\u003e you see the moment the stone moves. In a pav\u0026eacute; setting like this one it works harder than in a single large stone, because every facet flashes in its own direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow 7mm Looks on the Ear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeven millimeters is the size at which a clover holds its shape without becoming a statement. \u003cstrong\u003eFrom a few meters away you see straight away that it is a four-leaf clover\u003c\/strong\u003e, while the studs stay within the earlobe instead of overhanging it. They cover about a third of the lobe, so you can wear them under a beanie or a helmet and they do not get in the way on your pillow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is solid 925 sterling silver with no plated layer, so there is nothing that can wear off. Silver does tarnish in time; a silver cloth takes it off in a few passes. Moissanite mainly attracts grease, and that is the main reason stones look dull. Lukewarm water, a drop of mild soap and a soft toothbrush along the \u003cem\u003eunderside\u003c\/em\u003e of the stones lifts it away, because that is where the light enters. Take the earrings out before the pool and the gym.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carpe Ice","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58428936814936,"sku":null,"price":64.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0865\/3904\/3160\/files\/Ontwerpzondertitel-2026-09-09T160204.356.jpg?v=1788962546"}],"url":"https:\/\/carpeice.com\/en\/collections\/clover-earrings.oembed","provider":"Carpeice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
