4.76 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the mineral veins of Ceylon Sri Lanka to the light in your hand, this white moonstone carries a story shaped by time and water, and refined by human skill. Unearthed from ancient alluvial deposits, the rough stone began as a hidden crescent under layers of river silt and granite, catching day and night light as it shifted with the currents. Our gem is a translucent 4.76 carat oval shape moonstone, measuring 12.62 x 8.66 x 6.01 mm, cut as a classic cabochon to enhance its soft adularescence and moonlit glow, with a near colorless intensity that allows a pure, cool sheen to rise from within. The clarity grade is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which adds a whisper of natural character without detracting from its serene surface. There is no enhancement to this stone, it is natural and untreated, and the polish is excellent, revealing a silky dome that reflects light like a calm night sky.

The journey continued in the hands of experienced lapidaries who chose the oval cabochon form to honor the stone natural movement of light, each facet of the dome smoothed to exacting standards until the adularescence spoke with clarity. At The Natural Gemstone Company we select and certify every piece, documenting origin and characteristics so you receive an authentic story as well as a beautiful gem. This moonstone is ideal for a pendant that keeps the stone close to the heart, or for a ring design that allows the light to travel across the cabochon surface, revealing its inner glow as you move. Its dimensions and weight make it versatile for custom settings or heirloom pieces, a quiet centerpiece that carries the geological and cultural resonance of Ceylon Sri Lanka. Owning this moonstone is owning a small chapter of earth history, refined by craft, ready to become part of your personal story.
