Moissanite Chains Buying Guide
Every Grown Leo moissanite chain is made of 925 sterling silver (92.5% pure silver), plated in white, yellow or rose gold, and set with VVS1 clarity, DEF color moissanite that passes a standard diamond tester. Each chain comes in 16, 18, 20, 22 or 24 inch lengths. The result is the look of an iced out diamond chain at a fraction of the cost, in widths from 3mm tennis chains to 20mm Miami Cuban links.
Moissanite Cuban Link Chains
A moissanite Cuban link chain uses interlocking, flattened links paved or prong set with moissanite. It is a classic hip hop chain style. Choose a classic Cuban, a Miami Cuban with tight flat links, or a G-link or spiked Cuban for a twist. Shop moissanite Cuban link chains.
Moissanite Tennis Chains
A moissanite tennis chain is a continuous line of individually set stones. Slim 3–5mm tennis chains suit everyday wear and layering; cluster and baguette tennis chains go bolder. Shop moissanite tennis chains.
Iced Out Moissanite Chains
Iced out chains are fully set with stones so the whole chain sparkles. Beyond Cuban and tennis styles, our iced chains include Figaro, Byzantine, G-link, cross link, star, thorn, spiral and ankh designs. Shop iced out moissanite chains.
Moissanite Baguette Chains
Baguette chains use long rectangular step-cut stones for clean, mirror-like flashes of light instead of round-stone sparkle. Shop moissanite baguette chains.

Moissanite vs Diamond Chains
Moissanite is a lab-created gemstone rated 9.25 on the Mohs hardness scale, with more fire than diamond. Standard diamond testers read it as diamond because it conducts heat in a similar way; see does moissanite pass a diamond tester. Add a pendant from our moissanite pendants to finish the look.
Caring for Your Moissanite Chain
Take your chain off before swimming, showering or working out, keep it away from perfume and household chemicals that can wear gold plating, wipe it with a soft cloth after wearing and store it separately from other jewelry.
