101.73 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Born in the ancient soils of Ceylon Sri Lanka, this brown moonstone carries with it the quiet stories of coastal quarries and patient geology, layered over millennia until it revealed a form worthy of human hands, The Natural Gemstone Company is proud to present this exceptional specimen, an opaque oval cabochon weighing 101.73 carat, a weight that places it in a very rare class among moonstones. At 32.65 by 24.00 by 17.50 mm its substantial dimensions are not only a visual statement, they are a measure of its rarity and intrinsic value, because weight in moonstones translates directly into presence and scarcity. The stone displays a dark color intensity, an eye clean clarity as evaluated at eye level, and an excellent polish that emphasizes its solid, velvety surface and the subtle adularescence that moonstone collectors revere. No enhancement has been applied to this gem, allowing the full authenticity of its Ceylon origin to be appreciated in every glance.

From the moment the rough was lifted from Sri Lankan earth, this piece demanded a careful narrative of cutting and finishing, a tale that culminates in the smooth, reflective cabochon shaped to honor the stone rather than to force false brilliance. The cabochon cut preserves mass and weight, a critical choice for a 101.73 carat moonstone where every carat contributes to rarity, to the way light travels through the structure, and to its market distinction, Larger moonstones of this quality are seldom available, and their value grows not only with carat weight, but with proven origin, natural clarity, and untouched surface, This moonstone’s dark brown hue offers a sophisticated warmth that adapts beautifully to both classic and contemporary settings, promising a commanding presence whether set in a bespoke pendant or a statement ring, For collectors and connoisseurs who understand that weight and origin are central to a gemstone’s story, this stone is a rare opportunity to own a natural, unenhanced example from Ceylon, backed by the expertise and ethical sourcing standards of The Natural Gemstone Company, Contact us to learn about commissioning a setting that celebrates its mass and provenance, or to request detailed photographs and certification documentation.
