2 Carat Princess Cut 18k White Gold Moissanite Ring+ 2.0-Carat Princess Forever One Moissanite

The Mohs scale measures a gemstone's resistance to surface scratching. Moissanite's score of 9.25 means it is resistant to all but the hardest natural materials, primarily diamonds. For practical purposes, it means your ring will not be scratched by everyday items like keys, metal, or countertops, making it well-suited to daily wear. At this size, 2 carats gives you a ring that clearly stands out from the crowd while still looking elegant and intentional.

When freshly rhodium-plated, the two are nearly indistinguishable visually. As the plating wears, 18k may develop a slightly warmer yellow undertone compared to 14k because of its higher gold content. Both need periodic replating to maintain their bright white appearance, which effectively resets the color difference between them. Do Amore offers free maintenance services on white gold.

Moissanite is an excellent match for the princess cut because the cut's angular facet pattern concentrates light in a way that amplifies moissanite's natural fire. At 2 carats in 18k white gold, you get a stone with more brilliance than a comparable diamond, set in a premium 75% gold alloy. The princess cut's square profile maximizes face-up area efficiently, and moissanite's 9.25 Mohs hardness makes it durable for daily wear.

Princess cut uses brilliant faceting, producing sparkle that is comparable to a round brilliant in intensity. The difference is pattern: princess cuts show a cross-shaped or chevron pattern of light rather than the circular pattern of a round. Both are high-brilliance cuts. Princess is a strong choice for anyone who wants diamond-quality sparkle in a non-circular shape.
