Moissanite Heart Pendant Necklace | 101300421899162

How to Measure

• Chain length:
  • Use a soft tape or string. Wrap to your desired drop, mark it, then measure flat.
  • Typical fit on most necks:
    • 14 in (35.5 cm): close choker
    • 16 in (40.6 cm): sits at the collarbone
    • 18 in (45.7 cm): just below the collarbone (most popular)
    • 20–22 in (50.8–55.9 cm): upper chest
  • If your neck circumference is fuller, consider sizing up 2 in for a similar look.
• Pendant size:
  • Width: measure across the widest part of the heart.
  • Height: measure from the top of the heart to the point (bail excluded unless noted).
  • Quick reference: 1 mm ≈ 0.039 in; 10 mm ≈ 0.39 in.
• Drop length (how low it sits):
  • Approximate drop = (chain length ÷ 2) + pendant height.
• Chain thickness and bail opening:
  • Chain thickness is usually 0.8–1.2 mm for delicate pendants.
  • Check the bail’s inner height/width to ensure your chain will pass through.
• Stone size notes:
  • Moissanite is sized in millimeters. “Diamond equivalent carat” is for visual reference only.
  • Example: a 6.5 mm stone typically looks similar in face-up size to a 1.0 ct round diamond; a heart of similar width will appear comparable.

Materials & Craft

• Moissanite (heart cut):
  • Lab-grown, conflict-free gemstone with exceptional brilliance and fire.
  • Mohs hardness ~9.25 for excellent everyday durability.
  • Refractive index ~2.65–2.69; dispersion ~0.104 (more “fire” than diamond).
  • Resistant to heat and will not cloud; routine cleaning restores sparkle.
• Metal setting and chain:
  • Common options for this style include 925 sterling silver, solid gold (10–18K), or gold vermeil (thick gold over sterling silver).
  • White finishes may be rhodium plated for enhanced brightness and scratch resistance.
  • Please refer to the selected variant on this page for the exact metal, finish, and chain type supplied.
• Chain styles:
  • Often paired with a cable or box chain for strength and minimal snagging.
  • Some versions include a 2 in extender for adjustable length (see variant details).

Model & Fit Information

• For scale, many customers prefer 16–18 in chains for heart pendants worn near the collarbone.
• Layering tip: wear the heart pendant 2 in longer than a choker for a balanced stack.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Everyday care:
  • Last on, first off: put jewelry on after lotions, perfume, and hairspray; remove before workouts, swimming, and showering.
  • Store separately in a soft pouch or box to prevent scratches and tangles.
• Cleaning moissanite:
  • Soak in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap for 10–15 minutes.
  • Gently brush (soft toothbrush), rinse well, and dry with a lint-free cloth.
  • For solid-gold settings, ultrasonic cleaners are generally safe; avoid for plated pieces.
• Metal-specific care:
  • Sterling silver: use a silver polishing cloth; store in anti-tarnish pouches; avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Gold vermeil/plated: limit exposure to water, sweat, and friction; do not use ultrasonic or abrasive polishes—wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth and dry.
  • Solid gold: mild soap-and-water clean; occasional professional polish to restore luster.
• Periodic check: ensure prongs and clasp are secure; have a jeweler inspect if the piece experiences impact or snags.

Style Tips

• Everyday sparkle: pair the heart pendant with small moissanite or diamond stud earrings for a clean, luminous look.
• Layering: stack with a choker or a slim 14–16 in chain above and a 20–22 in chain below to frame the heart.
• Necklines: heart pendants pop with V-neck, scoop, sweetheart, and off-shoulder styles; choose a length that centers the heart above the neckline.
• Mix your metals: moissanite’s bright fire complements both yellow and white tones—blend for a modern, collected look.
• Gift-ready: hearts are classic for anniversaries, weddings, birthdays, and self-celebration—choose a length that matches the recipient’s daily style.
