Moissanite makes an easy gift to get right: it sparkles like a diamond, is hard enough for everyday wear, and costs a fraction of the price, so you can give a piece that really shows. Here are our favourite gift ideas at every budget, with real prices from our store, plus a few tips so the size, metal and timing are right.

Prices below are starting prices, checked in October 2026. Each product page shows the price for every metal.

Gifts under $250

Solid gold studs

The same round studs in solid gold start at $161.46 in 10K and $194.12 in 14K; princess studs are $188.02 in 14K. Solid gold keeps its colour and suits sensitive ears better than plated silver.

Solitaire pendants and necklaces

Some pendants are sold with a chain and some without; each listing says which.

Bigger studs

For a gift with more presence, 2 ct tw studs (two stones of about 1 ct each) start at $188.87 for round bezel studs, $191.89 for Asscher studs and $200.96 for cushion studs.

A promise or right-hand ring

A simple 1 ct moissanite solitaire starts at $149.99 in sterling silver. Browse moissanite solitaire rings and read how to choose a promise ring on a budget.

Gifts under $500

Tennis bracelets

Measure the wrist snugly and add about half an inch to one inch for a comfortable fit. See all moissanite tennis bracelets.

Coloured statement pendants

Coloured moissanite keeps the same hardness and fire in a bolder tone: the 5 ct dark green radiant halo pendant starts at $266.64 and the antique green pear halo pendant at $309.99. See our colored moissanite guide.

A matching set

Pair studs and a pendant in the same shape and metal, for example round studs with a round solitaire pendant. Keeping the metal tone the same makes the set look planned.

Bigger gifts

For an anniversary or a milestone, a tennis bracelet in solid gold, an upgrade to a larger stone, or a custom design makes a lasting present. Read choosing moissanite jewelry for an anniversary.

Tips for getting the gift right

  • Metal: look at the jewelry they already wear. Yellow, white or rose? Sterling silver keeps the price low; solid gold lasts best for daily wear.
  • Earring size: 1 to 2 ct tw (about 5 to 6.5 mm per round stone) suits most people for everyday wear.
  • Ring size: borrow a ring they wear on the same finger and measure it with our ring size guide and printable sizer. If in doubt, earrings or a pendant avoid the question.
  • Timing: every piece is made to order in 8 to 10 business days, then free standard shipping takes 8 to 20 business days, or express 6 to 9. Order early for birthdays, anniversaries and holidays.
  • Returns: unworn pieces can be returned within 30 days of delivery; personalised and resized pieces are final sale. See our refund policy.
