Where heart melee is used
- Pendants and charms — a single heart as the drop.
- Multi-stone designs — a row or cluster where every lobe and point must line up.
- Accents on romantic pieces — beside a centre stone or at the ends of a band.
- Earring pairs — two hearts matched for symmetry.
Setting notes
A heart has two fragile places: the cleft at the top and the point at the bottom. A prong in the cleft and a V-prong at the point are the usual answer; a bezel that follows the outline is the safest. Symmetry is what makes a heart read as a heart, so Caratura hearts are matched for symmetry before dispatch; for pairs, order both in one order and note "matched pair".

Frequently asked questions
Can I buy just one or two heart moissanite melee stones?
Yes. Caratura sells heart melee individually — the minimum is one stone — at $7 to $12 per stone depending on size, with no wholesale minimum. Shipping is $20 flat worldwide, free over $100, with duties prepaid.
What sizes of heart moissanite melee are available and what do they cost?
4 calibrated sizes: 3×3 mm ($7), 3.5×3.5 mm ($9), 4×4 mm ($11), 4.5×4.5 mm ($12) per stone, in D colour / VVS clarity, calibrated to ±0.1 mm. Other sizes are cut to order in about 7 days.
Will two heart stones ordered together match as a pair?
Stones in one order are supplied from one matched lot and hand-inspected for size, colour and cut consistency before dispatch. Note 'matched pair' in the order comments and the two stones are sorted together; if any stone is outside ±0.1 mm, report it within 14 days for a free replacement or refund.
