The Mossante Constellation Bracelet laid on a warm cream ground: a fine sterling silver cable chain with one small cluster of nine round brilliant moissanites at its center, the lobster clasp and extension chain to one side.
Close view of the cluster from straight above: nine round brilliant moissanites in three sizes, each in tiny prongs, lying along the fine sterling chain on a cream ground.

The Mossante Constellation Bracelet

Found in a crater. Grown in a lab.


In 1893 a French chemist sifting an Arizona meteorite crater found crystals that threw color. Today that mineral is grown in a lab and set, nine stones to a cluster, on a fine sterling chain.

Nine round brilliant moissanites in three sizes, prong set. One finish, sterling silver.

Something hit Arizona

An iron meteorite struck the high desert and left a crater three quarters of a mile across. It is still there.

Henri Moissan went looking

A French chemist, the one who first isolated fluorine, began sifting fragments from the crater for anything new.

Crystals that threw colour
The find

Crystals that threw colour

Under his lamp they flashed more fire than anything he had handled. He wrote them down as diamonds.

He was wrong, and it was better

He was wrong, and it was better

Eleven years of work proved them silicon carbide, a mineral of its own. George Kunz named it moissanite, after him.

On the wrist

Small on purpose

Still, it is a fine line of silver with one bright point. Turn the wrist and nine stones catch light at once.

Questions

Before you choose

Is moissanite just a fake diamond?+
No. It is its own mineral — silicon carbide — first found by Henri Moissan in an Arizona meteorite crater in 1893 and grown in a lab today, nothing mined. It is not an imitation of anything, and it throws more fire than a diamond does: 0.104 against 0.044. That is why the flash breaks into color.
Will it fit?+
Yes. The chain is 16 cm with a 5 cm extension, about 6.3 to 8.3 inches end to end, and the lobster clasp fastens anywhere along it, snug or loose. If you are giving it, you do not need to know her size.
How big is the cluster, and how heavy is the bracelet?+
The cluster is about 15 mm tall: nine round brilliants in three sizes, one large, four medium, four small. The whole bracelet weighs about 3.5 grams. It is fine on purpose, so it stays out of the way at a keyboard or a steering wheel.
Will it tarnish? How do I care for it?+
The sterling silver is plated in rhodium, a hard white metal that keeps it bright far longer than bare silver. Plating wears with time, so put it on after perfume and lotion, take it off for pools and the sea, and wipe it with a soft cloth. Store it in its box.
Is it for every day, or for occasions?+
Every day first. The chain is fine and the cluster is small, so at a desk it reads as one point of light. In low light the nine stones do their work, so it goes to dinner without changing. It suits a wedding wrist, a bride's or a bridesmaid's, and the Tuesday after.
When will it arrive, and what if it is not right?+
Free and tracked, to the US and worldwide. It leaves us within 1 to 2 working days, then allow 6 to 10 working days in the US; international orders can take a little longer. You get a tracking link by email. Then 30 days to send it back unworn in its box for a refund; return postage is yours.
How do I reach you, or order more than two?+
Email info@mossante.com. A person answers, usually within one working day. Write to the same address for a larger order or a change to your order. If it is a gift, tell us and we will leave the prices off the paperwork.
