13.16 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A rare offering from The Natural Gemstone Company, this exquisite translucent grey moonstone presents a presence that is quietly commanding, and quietly exclusive. At 13.16 carat and fashioned into a gracefully proportioned oval, this gem is one of a select few that combine meaningful carat weight with a soft grey palette and an elegant cabochon silhouette. Dimensions of 13.90 x 11.24 x 11.21 mm speak to a size that is substantial enough to anchor a bespoke creation, yet refined enough to maintain an intimate, personal character. Sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka, this moonstone brings with it the storied provenance of one of the world most respected gem producing regions, a detail that will resonate with collectors and designers who value origin alongside beauty.

Excellence in cut and finish elevate this piece into a collectible category. The cabochon cut enhances the stone inherent translucence and allows light to pool under the dome, producing a subtle glow that is both calming and captivating. Evaluated at eye level as eye clean, the gem displays clarity that permits its inner serenity to be appreciated without distraction. Color intensity falls into the medium light range, offering a gentle grey that reads as versatile and sophisticated. The polish is excellent, giving the surface a glass like sheen that reflects light in soft, luminous highlights. Important to discerning buyers, this moonstone has no enhancement, preserving its natural formation and ensuring that its beauty is unaltered by treatment.

For those who imagine jewelry as a personal signature, this moonstone is a singular canvas for bespoke expression. Its oval outline and generous size make it ideal for a commanding ring setting, a luxurious pendant, or an intimate brooch that commands attention in quiet moments. Designers may choose warm metals for a vintage inspired contrast, or cool metals to harmonize with the moonstone ethereal tone. Paired with accent diamonds, sapphires, or subtle colored stones, the gem can shift between modern minimalism and classical opulence.
