0.37 Ct. Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Introducing the semi-transparent rainbow moonstone from The Natural Gemstone Company, a captivating gemstone that beautifully blends both classic elegance and modern allure. This radiant shape moonstone, weighing 0.37 carats, boasts dimensions of 4.45 x 4.00 x 3.25 mm, making it an ideal choice for those who appreciate understated glamour merged with intricate craftsmanship. Originating from the exquisite lands of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, this moonstone is a testament to the magnificent natural resources the region provides, and is treasured by gem collectors and jewelry enthusiasts alike.

Crafted with exceptional precision, the radiant cut of this moonstone ensures that light is maximally reflected with extraordinary brilliance. The faceting style enhances the stone's inherent adularescence—a mesmerizing, colorful sheen very specific to moonstones—ensuring a beautiful play of light with each movement. The radiant cut is particularly known for its meticulous combination of the round brilliant cut and the elegant step cut, resulting in a multi-faceted face that captures and refracts light seamlessly. In this moonstone, the radiant faceting style effectively emphasizes its semi-transparent nature while maintaining a balance between brilliance and the subtler aspects of its visual appeal.

This moonstone holds a faint color intensity, creating a gentle and subtle aesthetic that perfectly complements its semi-transparent quality. Adding to its dynamic charm is its clarity grade, classed as very very slightly included (eye level evaluation), which indicates that any inclusions can barely be seen to the naked eye. This level of clarity puts it at a premium bracket, crafting an enticing visual that is rarely interrupted. Our skilled artisans have ensured an excellent polish to this gem, reflecting superior craftsmanship that renders it smooth and lustrous in finish; an unmistakable signature of The Natural Gemstone Company's commitment to quality and beauty.

The durability of this moonstone can be assessed through its positioning on the Mohs scale of hardness, a scientific measurement of a mineral’s scratch resistance. Typically, moonstones rate between 6 and 6.5 on the scale. While this positions them as somewhat softer compared to top-of-the-scale diamonds rated at 10, it means they are suitable for items like pendants or earrings that are less likely to encounter harsh contact or conditions. However, owning such a piece requires a gentle intrinsic care and consideration while being worn, which likens the moonstone to a fine gemstone handling ethos.

Proudly sourced by The Natural Gemstone Company, our rainbow moonstone brings the ethereal beauty of Ceylon directly to your collection. This piece is an embodiment of both artistry and authenticity, capturing ancient cultural lore and modern-day craftsmanship. Such gemstones are an assurance of quality to our audience who require intricate details without compromising on the aesthetic elements.
