21.48 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This translucent 21.48 carat oval grey moonstone from Ceylon Sri Lanka offers a combination of size, natural origin, and clean appearance that is uncommon among market alternatives, and The Natural Gemstone Company presents this stone as a superior choice for discerning buyers. Measuring 21.03 by 18.95 by 7.65 mm, the cabochon shape maximizes the moonstone effect while providing a stable profile for bezel or prong settings, and the medium light color intensity gives a versatile neutral tone that complements both warm and cool metal choices. Clarity is evaluated as very very slightly included at eye level, which means the gem reads clean to most viewers while still retaining natural character, and with no enhancement applied this piece stands apart from many commercial stones that are heat treated or surface filled, ensuring buyers receive an authentic natural material with traceable origin.

When compared to other moonstones and common market offerings, this gem stands out for quality to value ratio, because large, unenhanced stones from Ceylon Sri Lanka are rarer and more sought after. Where many sellers offer smaller or heavily treated material to achieve uniform color or improved translucency, this moonstone retains a natural translucence and an excellent polish that produces a smooth, luminous surface and reliable light response. The cabochon cut is executed to highlight body tone and subtle adularescence, making this stone ideal for collectors and designers who want a piece that performs well under both daylight and jewelry lighting. For customers weighing synthetic alternatives or lower grade moonstones, this gem delivers authenticity, substantial visual presence, and straightforward lapidary quality, making it a strong long term investment as well as a beautiful focal point for bespoke jewelry.
