10.00 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine holding a sliver of sunrise, a gentle glow that seems to come from within, a stone that promises to carry light into ordinary days and to transform special moments into memories that last a lifetime. This is the feeling you will experience with this exquisite orange moonstone from The Natural Gemstone Company. Its warm, honeyed tones and soft internal glow invite touch and admiration, and its presence in a setting will turn an ordinary piece of jewelry into a meaningful heirloom. Whether you are seeking a gift that speaks of love and new beginnings, or a centerpiece for a bespoke creation, this moonstone brings joy and a quiet, enduring beauty that speaks directly to the heart.

This gem is a single translucent 10.00 carat oval shape orange moonstone, with precise dimensions of 16.06 x 12.00 x 6.96 mm. The stone is fashioned in a classic cabochon cut, chosen to reveal the moonstone character of a silky sheen and a softly diffuse light that seems to move when the stone is turned. Clarity is graded as very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means the gem shows only delicate, natural inclusions that do not distract from its luminous character. Color reads as medium intense in color intensity, a warm orange that is at once vibrant and soothing, perfectly balanced to flatter a variety of metal choices and design styles. The polish is excellent, resulting in a mirror like surface that enhances the gem s translucency and glow. There has been no enhancement, and the origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a timeless source for fine moonstones known for their purity and charm. These straightforward facts matter, because natural, untreated beauty is the legacy that makes a piece truly precious.

Consider how this moonstone will feel set in a design that celebrates its soft light. In a rose gold bezel it will glow like a private sunrise close to the skin, in yellow gold it will sing warmth and classical elegance, in white gold or silver it will show a modern, refined contrast that emphasizes its internal radiance. A cabochon like this pairs beautifully with simple, clean lines that let its color and sheen take center stage, or it can be framed by delicate accent stones for a romantic, heirloom effect. For a bride seeking a meaningful touch on her wedding day, for an anniversary that marks the steady unfolding of a life shared, or for a creative jeweler looking for a focal piece that tells a story, this stone brings both visual beauty and emotional weight. Its comfortable size and gentle proportions make it ideal for a striking ring, a graceful pendant, or a one of a kind brooch. The very slightly included clarity gives the gem a living texture, a reminder that every natural stone carries a unique history, and the untreated, no enhancement status assures the wearer that they are loving something as nature intended.
