3.80 Ct. White Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exceptional white moonstone from Ceylon is a rare find, a piece that speaks to collectors and designers who demand singular beauty and unquestioned provenance. Weighing 3.80 carats, this oval cabochon measures 14.36 by 8.43 by 4.58 millimeters, and its translucent body carries the soft, lunar glow that has made moonstone a timeless choice for bespoke jewels. The stone is near colorless and exhibits a pristine, ethereal sheen that moves with the light, revealing delicate adularescence that appears as a silky band across the dome. Evaluated at eye level, the clarity is slightly included, a natural characteristic that lends personality and depth rather than detracting from the gem. The polish is excellent, and there has been no enhancement to alter its natural character. At The Natural Gemstone Company we source such specimens sparingly, and this particular moonstone, unheated and unenhanced from Sri Lanka, is presented for those who wish to possess an authentic gem with a story and a pedigree.

What sets this moonstone apart for custom jewelry is its dimension, shape, and cut, which together create extraordinary design versatility. The length of 14.36 millimeters across a graceful oval profile offers an ideal canvas for a statement ring where the elongated shape flatters the finger and captures the light across its axis, or for a pendant that reads as an elegant focal point suspended over the neckline. The cabochon cut enhances the lunar sheen, creating a smooth, domed surface that plays with light in a way faceted stones cannot, making it superb for pieces intended to emphasize softness and movement. The thickness of 4.58 millimeters provides enough depth for secure bezel or prong settings, ensuring the gem sits firmly in bespoke mounts without appearing flat against the skin. Slight inclusions viewed at eye level are consistent with natural Sri Lankan moonstones and offer a subtle, organic texture that designers can highlight with open back settings or with complementary accent stones. Its near colorless body makes it endlessly adaptable, pairing beautifully with warm metals like rose and yellow gold for a romantic vintage look, as well as with white gold or platinum for a modern, minimalist statement.

Owning this moonstone places you among a select few who appreciate genuinely rare materials, and The Natural Gemstone Company is proud to present it as a centerpiece for a custom commission. We offer personalized guidance to translate this stone into a singular creation, whether you envision a couture ring with a halo of fine melee diamonds, a halo of tiny colored sapphires for contrast, an artisan bezel that showcases the stone from the profile, or an asymmetric design that celebrates the organic inclusions. For those seeking understated luxury, a simple claw or bezel set solitaire will emphasize the moonstone s luminosity while offering durable everyday wear. Our gemological team has assessed and documented the stone s measurements, weight, clarity, color intensity, cut style, polish, and enhancement status to ensure transparency and confidence in your commission. Because stones of this size, clarity, and origin are limited, we recommend early inquiry to reserve the piece for your design. Contact The Natural Gemstone Company for a private consultation, access to high resolution images and videos, and a bespoke design proposal tailored to your aesthetic and lifestyle. Embrace the opportunity to wear a moonstone that is both a natural treasure from Sri Lanka and a refined centerpiece designed just for you.
