0.37 Ct. Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This pear shape white moonstone weighs 0.37 carat and measures 5.85 x 3.71 x 3.29 mm, resulting in a length to width ratio of approximately 1.58 that yields a refined pear silhouette suitable for a small pendant, accent stone, or delicate solitaire setting. The gem is transparent with a near colorless body tone, and it displays classic adularescence as a soft floating sheen that reads cleanly against the pale body color. Cut as a mixed brilliant, the faceting combines a precisely executed brilliant style crown with a modified pavilion facet architecture, an approach that enhances light return while preserving the gem specific optical effect. Facet junctions are tight and well aligned, and the excellent polish delivers crisp facet planes that contribute to the stone s apparent brightness and tactile smoothness. Clarity is graded as slightly included at eye level, indicating small natural inclusions visible to the experienced eye that do not materially detract from transparency or the overall visual impact. There are no enhancements, the stone is natural and untreated, and the dimensions and proportions have been optimized to balance optical performance with durability for secure mounting in a variety of fine jewelry settings.
