7.78 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

If you are searching for a distinctive center stone that answers the call for elegance, uniqueness, and natural origin, this translucent brown moonstone is the perfect solution. This gem is a substantial 7.78 carat round shape moonstone, measuring 10.17 x 10.01 x 10.30 mm, cut en cabochon to reveal a silky dome and even surface. Evaluated at eye level, its clarity is very slightly included, which means the stone reads clean to the eye while maintaining the natural character that collectors and thoughtful buyers value. The color presents as a pleasing medium light brown, a warm and versatile tone that moves easily between classic and contemporary aesthetics. With an excellent polish and no enhancement, this moonstone is fully natural and pure in appearance, and its origin from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, adds a layer of provenance that many connoisseurs appreciate.

When your need is a stone that feels both wearable and special, this moonstone answers beautifully. The cabochon cut accentuates translucency and surface luster, producing a soft luminous quality that invites touch and close inspection. At nearly ten millimeters across, the gem reads boldly on the finger while retaining a smooth, refined profile that is ideal for bezel or soft prong settings. For someone seeking an engagement ring alternative that is understated yet memorable, the warm brown tone pairs exceptionally well with yellow gold and rose gold, and it makes a sophisticated contrast with brighter white metals and accent diamonds. For collectors, the combination of substantial carat weight, natural origin, and lack of treatment makes this specimen a meaningful addition to a curated group. The very slightly included clarity gives the gem personality without distracting from its overall serene appearance, and the excellent polish ensures light plays across the dome in a steady and elegant way.
