This semi-transparent white moonstone weighs 1.46 carats and is fashioned into a beautiful pear shape with dimensions of 9.83 x 7.49 x 4.05 mm. The moonstone features a mixed brilliant cut, which enhances its overall brilliance and maximizes the reflection of light from its facets. This cut is particularly popular in gemological circles for its ability to bring out the inherent beauty of the gemstone.
The clarity grade of this moonstone is described as very slightly included, evaluated at eye level. This means that any inclusions present are minimal and not visible to the naked eye, ensuring a clear appearance that allows light to pass through seamlessly. The color intensity is near colorless, bestowing the stone with a subtle, elegant appearance devoid of any prominent hue that might otherwise detract from its aesthetic appeal.
An excellent polish further distinguishes this moonstone. The high-quality finish ensures that the gemstone's surface is exceptionally smooth, allowing for superior light reflection and an immaculate appearance. This level of polish is indicative of meticulous craftsmanship and guarantees that the gemstone looks its best in any setting.
The origin of this moonstone is Ceylon, known today as Sri Lanka. This region is highly regarded in the gemstone industry for producing some of the world's finest gemstones. Moonstones from Sri Lanka are particularly valued for their unique optical phenomena and overall quality, often surpassing specimens found in other parts of the world.
Moonstone is a member of the feldspar group of minerals and is known for its characteristic adularescence, a phenomenon where light scatters within the gemstone, creating a captivating glow. The gem's mineralogical composition and structural properties contribute to this unique effect, rendering it particularly appealing to collectors and jewelry enthusiasts seeking something that stands out.
In conclusion, this 1.46 carat pear-shaped white moonstone from Sri Lanka is an exemplary piece that meets the high-quality standards expected by an educated buyer. Its excellent polish, near colorless appearance, minimal inclusions, and the added allure of adularescence make it a desirable addition to any fine jewelry collection.
