0.52 Ct. Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

The Natural Gemstone Company proudly presents an exquisite gem that merges the mystical allure and serene luminescence prized in fine jewelry—our 0.52-carat rainbow moonstone. This gem embodies the captivating essence that moonstones are revered for, offering a perfect balance of beauty and elegance that will add a prestigious air to any collection. Quarried from the fertile land of Ceylon, also known as Sri Lanka, this rainbow moonstone showcases its geological prestige as a hallmark of quality.

With precise dimensions of 4.84 x 4.82 x 3.69 mm, this semi-transparent moonstone possesses a rare and appealing asscher-octagon cut that enhances its luster and optical properties. The polishing is done to an excellent standard, bringing out the stone’s enchanting adularescence—a play of light that shifts across its surface. This effect is particularly pronounced with the fine asscher cut, which incorporates step facets similar to an emerald cut but with a brighter, more consistent brilliance that illuminates softly to capture the imagination of observers. The brilliant polish further accentuates this feature, giving the moonstone an everlasting shine which only boosts its magnetic influence in a bespoke jewelry piece.

In terms of clarity, the moonstone bears a grading of "very slightly included" under eye-level evaluation, meaning that it maintains a clear and striking presence. Moonstones traditionally include tiny flaws or inclusions which, rather than detract, often lend a certain uniqueness to the gem as they internalize the story of its formation. The very light color intensity of this rainbow moonstone responds beautifully to different angles and lighting conditions, generating flashes of color that span subtle shades of blue, white, or even a gentle prismatic glow that breathes life into custom pieces.

When paired with complementary gemstones, this moonstone transforms a jewelry setting into a universal expression of elegance and individuality. Its cool and luminous hues can be stunningly accented by contrasting richly colored gemstones such as deep blue sapphires or brilliant rubies to create a captivating contrast or paired with diamonds or white topaz to maintain a clean and classic theme. In a custom setting, rose gold can highlight the ethereal glow of the moonstone while a white gold or platinum setting can offer a timeless backdrop that underscores its natural beauty.

From a simple pendant to an intricate multi-gem arrangement, this rainbow moonstone from The Natural Gemstone Company can anchor a personal design that feels celestial and meaningful. The neutral color palette of the moonstone makes it highly versatile, suitable for everyday elegance or to serve as a conversation-starting piece at more formal events. Whether set in earrings, a distinctive engagement ring, or an heirloom necklace, our Ceylon origin moonstone is destined to be a cherished element of fine jewelry traditions.
