1.65 Ct. Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This transparent 1.65 carat pear shape rainbow moonstone from Ceylon Sri Lanka represents a rare convergence of scale and quality that you will notice the moment you see it. At 1.65 carat this gem carries a presence that outperforms the smaller, more common moonstones offered in the market, many of which are thin, heavily included, or limited to cabochon shapes. The mixed brilliant cut elevates this specimen above the usual offerings, creating a lively interplay of internal flash and facet brilliance that faceted moonstone collectors and fine jewelry designers actively seek. With dimensions of 8.33 by 8.45 by 4.43 mm, the pear shape sits ideally for a solitaire ring or a statement pendant, delivering a balanced profile that reads larger than its carat weight alone.

Compared with the majority of rainbow moonstones that reach the market, this gem stands out for its clarity and finish. The clarity grade of very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, means the stone is essentially eye clean in practical wear, unlike many moonstones that show obvious inclusions or haziness. The light color intensity keeps the classic moonstone glow subtle and elegant, while the excellent polish maximizes the cut's reflective potential, producing crisp flashes rather than diffuse sheen. Importantly, this gem is untreated, no enhancement, which adds to its desirability for purists and investors who prioritize natural state over enhanced color or clarity. Origin from Ceylon Sri Lanka further enhances provenance value, as Ceylon is known for producing gemstones with fine optical properties and consistent quality.

At The Natural Gemstone Company we position this 1.65 carat pear shape rainbow moonstone as a superior choice for customers who want more than what standard market pieces provide. It offers better transparency than many cabochon moonstones, a more contemporary and brilliant look than traditional cuts, and a reassuring combination of eye level clarity, meticulous polish, and untreated authenticity. For jewelers seeking a standout center stone or collectors pursuing rare faceted moonstones with genuine Ceylon origin, this gem delivers exceptional value and unique character. If you want a moonstone that performs technically and appeals aesthetically, this piece represents a premium selection from our curated inventory.
