The Moissanite Layer

Measure the look. Not just the label.

For moissanite, compare the stone's millimeter dimensions, pendant measurements, and chain length before choosing your finishing layer.

Millimeters make size easier to compare.

Carat is a unit of mass, not width. Some jewelry listings use comparison-based size labels, so ask what the stated figure means. Use actual measurements to understand the scale of your necklace.

Stone dimensions

Check width and length in millimeters, plus depth where supplied. Different outlines and proportions can look different at a similar stated size.

Pendant dimensions

The setting and bail add to the visible outline. Compare the complete pendant, not only the center stone.

Chain length

Check the full chain length and any extension range. Measurements should distinguish the fixed chain from an adjustable extender.

Layer spacing

Give each pendant room to sit separately. Fit varies with your neckline, body, and the shapes of the other necklaces.
