Moissanite pendants are hung from necklaces to accent and add glamor to an outfit. They are ideal as substitutes for diamond pendants, because they offer the same hardness and luster for a much lower price. They usually come in round or princess cuts, and may set on white gold or yellow gold mounts. A moissanite pendant may have one or several moissanites, which can be grouped or individually set.
Cut and mount: Make sure your moissanite pendant has the right type of mount for its cut. Four-prong mounts work best for round cuts, because they provide a more secure hold and balance the round edges. For princess and other square cuts, three-prong and bezel mounts are best because four-prongs may not grip the corners very well. Heart-shaped cuts work best with slide or bezel mounts. Luster: Choose a moissanite pendant that will not dull or lose luster over time. The best varieties catch light and reflect it at different angles when held up. Look for one with a multi-faceted cut to reduce rubbing and friction.
