0.57 Ct. Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Long before time could be measured by man-made devices, deep beneath the surface of the Earth in what is now known as Ceylon or Sri Lanka, a fascinating process began to unfold that spanned millions of years. It was within the hidden confines of these subterranean caverns, amid the gentle orchestration of heat, pressure, and natural minerals, that an exceptional gem began to form. The rainbow moonstone, despite being nestled within Earth's embrace, garnered whispers of the celestial skies encapsulated within its very core. Each delicate influence from tectonic shifts and volcanic activity only contributed to the magical symphony that led to its unique formation, one that would wait patiently for eons until the day it was uncovered.

Fast forward to the modern era, where this particular specimen of semi-transparent beauty made its way from the rough, rocky grounds of the Ceylon terrains to the expert hands of our master craftsmen at The Natural Gemstone Company. A true testament to the harmonious ballet between nature and human artistry, the raw stone was meticulously sculpted into an exquisite octagon shape, revealing the 0.57 carat asscher-cut elegance with dimensions that measure at 5.15 x 4.83 x 3.78 mm. The very essence of the moonstone is wrapped within its emerald cut, a hallmark of precision and sophistication. Despite its journey from the depths of the Earth to daylight, it retains a medium light color intensity, a quality that draws parallels to the luminous glow of moonbeams hidden amidst the semi-transparent facets.

With an excellent polish ensuring that every angle gleams radiantly, this moonstone’s clarity has been graded as very very slightly included, offering the tiniest window into its splendid inner world. Such precision and attention to detail speak to the dedication upheld by The Natural Gemstone Company, capturing an ethereal beauty that harkens back to its storied genesis in Ceylon. As you regard this miraculous gemstone, bear in mind the narrative of its cosmic tale, one millennia in the making. It has traveled across time, undergone transformation through both earthly processes and human touch, and awaits to be cherished and appreciated by discerning eyes who value the intersection of natural wonder and craftsmanship. The rainbow moonstone's journey from relic of the past to a remarkable treasure for today is a story that promises to be both timeless and infinite.
