21.17 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine cradling a piece of moonlit sky in the palm of your hand, a gem that seems to hold a soft hush of mystery and quiet joy. At The Natural Gemstone Company we are delighted to present a truly special specimen, one beautiful semi translucent grey moonstone weighing 21.17 carat, cut into a graceful oval shape that measures 23.16 by 14.71 by 8.15 millimeters. This gem is finished as a cabochon to reveal its gentle internal glow, and it is eye clean when viewed at eye level, allowing the serene grey tones to shine without distraction. The sensation of seeing its surface gleam with an excellent polish is like watching moonlight ripple across a still pond, and knowing this stone has no enhancement adds a layer of honesty and authenticity that modern buyers cherish.

The color of this moonstone is a medium intense grey, a shade that carries both sophistication and a quiet romance. Its semi translucent body allows light to pass through and interact with internal structures, creating a soft, floating luminosity that changes as the gem moves. The cabochon cut was chosen to maximize that internal play of light, delivering a soothing adularescence that invites a second, and then a third, look. Because it is eye clean, your gaze is free to travel over its polished dome without finding inclusions that interrupt the experience, and the smooth tactile feel of the surface makes it ideal for jewelry pieces that are worn often and held close. Originating from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, this moonstone carries the legacy of a storied gem source, a provenance that speaks to both quality and geologic poetry.

Think of the moments this gem can inspire, whether it becomes the heart of a bespoke pendant, the centerpiece of a ring given to mark a deep commitment, or the cherished gift that seals a memory between loved ones. Its substantial weight of 21.17 carat gives it presence without pretension, and its oval silhouette offers timeless versatility for both classic and contemporary designs. Imagine a loved one catching the light as they turn toward you, the moonstone picking up the room like a secret, a private glow that whispers of thoughtfulness and care. For the wearer, there is a quiet joy in the knowledge that the gem is natural, untreated, and lovingly selected by gem specialists who understand how to speak the language of color, clarity, and cut.

At The Natural Gemstone Company we believe every gem should tell a story, and this grey moonstone is ready to become a chapter in yours. We stand behind its origin, its excellent polish, and the fact that it has not been enhanced in any way, providing confidence for collectors and first time buyers alike. If you envision this moonstone as part of a custom creation, our team would be honored to advise on settings that enhance its luminous character and protect its smooth cabochon top. Let this moonstone be more than a purchase, let it be a gift of wonder, a token of love, and a source of everyday delight, a piece that carries the soft certainty of moonlight into every moment it is worn.
