Origin
Built on Brilliance
Refined. Intentional. Uncompromising.
Founded in Malibu in 2022, Northstone is the modern house of moissanite—designed for those who value permanence over noise. We craft limited pieces with a focus on structure, clarity, and understated presence.
Nothing overstated. Nothing compromised.
Sustainability Without Sacrifice
Luxury shouldn’t come at the planet’s expense. At Northstone, we design with the future in mind.
Sterling silver and select high-grade recycled metals
Minimal inventory waste through curated releases and made-to-order pieces
Reduced packaging footprint with recyclable and reusable custom boxes
Longevity-focused design—meant to be worn, not retired
A More Conscious Brilliance
At Northstone, we choose moissanite not as an alternative—but as a reflection of values.
Unlike diamonds, which are often mined under harsh conditions with environmental and human costs, moissanite is lab-grown, traceable, and ethically produced. It offers exceptional brilliance without the legacy of conflict, exploitation, or ecological harm.
We believe luxury should never come at the expense of people or the planet.
The Northstone Standard
Precision-Cut Brilliance
Only D-color, VVS moissanite—ethically grown and expertly cut for clarity, permanence, and presence. Each stone is selected with intention.
Architectural Design Language
Clean lines. Balanced weight. Timeless geometry. Every piece is sculpted with purpose.
Conscious Luxury
Responsibly sourced materials, lab-grown stones, recycled metals, and minimal-waste production. No mining. No compromise.
Curated Rarity
Released in limited runs. No trend chasing. No overexposure. What you own remains rare by design.
Not All Sparkle Is Created Equal
Cubic Zirconia Imitates.
Diamonds Demand Compromise.
Moissanite Redefines the Standard.
Engineered for brilliance, moissanite delivers superior fire, exceptional durability, and diamond-tested performance—without the ethical, environmental, or financial excess of traditional stones. Its optical precision produces a sharper, more consistent sparkle that doesn’t fade with time or trends.
At Northstone, we don’t chase tradition. We refine it.
Moissanite isn’t an alternative—it’s the evolution of fine jewelry.

Moissanite Hardness
Moissanite measures 9.25 on the Mohs Hardness Scale, just below diamond at 10. This level of hardness gives it exceptional resistance to scratches and surface wear, making it well-suited for daily use while maintaining its clarity and finish over time.
-
Moissanite Fire
Moissanite is known for its pronounced fire, producing crisp flashes of spectral light that are especially visible in natural sunlight. This heightened dispersion gives each piece a lively brilliance, adding depth and movement without overwhelming the design.

Moissanite Brilliance
While diamonds are known for a balance of brilliance, dispersion, and scintillation, moissanite offers a distinct optical profile of its own. With a refractive index of 2.65–2.69, higher than that of diamond, moissanite returns light with heightened intensity and clarity.
