11.48 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There are moments in life that call for something quietly extraordinary, moments when a single object can hold a memory, a promise, a feeling. This translucent green moonstone is one of those objects. At 11.48 carat it carries presence without pretension, an oval cabochon that seems to breathe with soft inner light. When you hold it you will feel a calm ripple of joy and wonder, like the hush after a sunset when everything is warm and possible. From the careful hands that sourced it in Ceylon, Sri Lanka, to the skilled polish that brings its surface to an excellent shine, this gem is a gift of nature and human care combined. The Natural Gemstone Company invites you to imagine this moonstone as the center of a moment that will be remembered for years, whether given as a declaration of love, a celebration of self, or an heirloom to pass along.

Beyond the feeling it inspires, the technical qualities of this stone explain why it sings so beautifully. The dimensions measure 12.86 by 11.71 by 10.05 mm, an elegant size that sits comfortably on the hand or close to the heart. The cabochon cut enhances the moonstone effect, allowing light to play across the dome and reveal subtle shifts of tone. Clarity is graded very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, meaning that the stone reads clean and luminous to the viewer, with tiny natural features that only deepen its character. Color intensity is faint, a whisper of pale green that moves softly rather than shouts. There are no enhancements, the gem is wholly natural, and polishing has been finished to an excellent standard so that surfaces reflect light with a silky sheen. These details make this moonstone wonderfully versatile for design, from a minimalist bezel to a vintage inspired setting that lets its soft glow become the voice of the piece.

Imagine this moonstone set into a ring that you slip on for an anniversary that matters, the light catching as you reach for a glass to toast a shared laughter. Picture it as a pendant that rests against the chest during long conversations, a calm talisman that anchors confidence and tenderness. Envision gifting it on a day that marks a new chapter, seeing the recipient’s eyes brighten with the same gentle light that lives in the gem.
