The Strand Necklace
Description
4mm of moissanite, from clasp to clasp. A tennis necklace in the traditional sense — continuous, even, and built to be worn every day.
Every stone is a round brilliant moissanite, D color and VVS1 clarity. D color means entirely colorless — no yellow, no grey tint, just pure white light returned from the stone. VVS1 means visually flawless without magnification. At 4mm wide the stones sit close enough together that the necklace reads as a single continuous line of brilliance rather than individual stones. Moissanite's refractive index is 2.65 versus diamond's 2.42 — which means more fire in each stone. Across 18 to 24 inches of connected moissanite, that difference is visible.
The necklace is set in S925 sterling silver with an 18K gold finish. Each stone is held in a shared-prong arrangement — the standard for tennis necklaces and proven to keep stones secure while keeping the profile close to the neck. Available in 18, 20, 22, and 24 inch lengths to suit different necklines.
Every stone is lab-created. No mining, no conflict in the supply chain. A diamond tennis necklace of equivalent grading would cost many times more — not because moissanite is lesser, but because lab creation has entirely different economics to mining. D color and VVS1 are D color and VVS1 regardless of how the stone was produced.
