Is moonstone durable?
Moonstone is softer than sapphire or diamond (6–6.5 on the Mohs scale). It's best suited to necklaces and earrings rather than everyday rings.

Will the stone lose its glow?
No — the glow (adularescence) is a natural optical effect and will not fade over time.

Is this piece heavy?
Yes — this is a substantial chain designed to be felt when worn. Styling

- Designed to be worn on its own — no layering needed
- Works with open necklines, shirts, and simple knits
- Sits at the collarbone — visible without overwhelming Care

Clean with a soft cloth and store dry. Avoid impact, harsh chemicals, and ultrasonic cleaning — moonstone is a softer stone (6–6.5 Mohs). The bezel setting offers protection, but treat with a little care. Delivery
