14.12 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This is a beautiful semi translucent peach moonstone weighing 14.12 carats, presented in a classic oval shape with measurements of 16.73 x 13.36 x 8.81 mm. The gem has been expertly faceted in a cabochon cut to showcase its soft glow and internal adularescence, and it displays a medium light color intensity that reads as a warm, delicate peach under various lighting conditions. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, which means that the stone has only the most minor internal characteristics that do not detract from its overall appearance, and the polish is excellent, giving the surface a silky, reflective finish. There is no enhancement applied to this moonstone, and its origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a locale renowned for producing high quality moonstones with appealing colors and stable natural beauty. For buyers seeking a natural, untreated gemstone with an elegant presence, this piece is an outstanding example.

Visually this peach moonstone offers a gentle, luminous quality that seems to glow from within, the cabochon shape allowing the subtle interplay of light to move across the dome in a pleasing and serene manner. The semi translucent body permits a soft diffusion of light without being overly cloudy, creating a look that is both feminine and versatile. At 16.73 mm by 13.36 mm, this oval is large enough to make a statement as a center stone in a pendant or a bold ring, while the 8.81 mm depth gives it satisfying volume that reads well when set in bezel styles or custom secure settings. Rose gold settings will warm the peach tones and enhance the gem’s natural blush, while yellow gold will give a classic, vintage inspired look, and white gold or platinum will present a modern, minimalist contrast that lets the moonstone’s inner glow take center stage. Because of the cabochon cut and stable composition, it suits designs where a smooth, tactile surface is desirable, and it is especially attractive in halo arrangements that frame its soft color with small diamonds or champagne sapphires for extra sparkle.

At The Natural Gemstone Company we take pride in sourcing gemstones with clear provenance and careful evaluation, and this moonstone comes from Ceylon Sri Lanka where it was selected for its color, clarity, and cabochon quality. The fact that this stone is untreated adds long term value for collectors and for custom jewellers seeking authentic materials for heirloom pieces. Care is straightforward, treat the moonstone with routine gentleness, avoid harsh chemicals and extended exposure to heat, and remove jewelry before vigorous activity to reduce the risk of knocks that could chip the polished dome. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft brush or cloth, avoid steam and ultrasonic cleaning, and store separately from harder gemstones to prevent abrasion. Beyond its technical qualities this peach moonstone carries a timeless, soothing aesthetic, making it an ideal choice for special occasion gifts, birthstone inspired commissions, or bespoke pieces intended to be passed down.
