70.77 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine holding a moonlit memory in the palm of your hand, a warm and luminous treasure that seems to breathe with a calm and steady glow, a jewel that invites quiet smiles and whispered promises. This is that very feeling when you meet this exquisite brown moonstone, a translucent oval of soft, earthy sheen and gentle presence. The tone is deeply comforting, yet it carries an elegant mystery, the kind of beauty that makes someone catch their breath and slowly reach for words of affection. Whether you are choosing a gift for someone who means the world to you, or choosing a personal talisman to mark a milestone, this gem creates a connection that feels timeless and intimate.

The stone itself is a magnificent 70.77 carats, an impressive size that translates to a commanding and graceful presence when set into jewelry. It is an oval shape with dimensions of 31.62 x 23.40 x 12.50 mm, cut as a classic cabochon to emphasize the stone body and the soft, fluid reflection that moonstone lovers prize. Translucent with intense color intensity, the surface shows a satin like glow that catches light and carries it across the dome, enhanced by an excellent polish that gives the gem an inviting, silky finish. The clarity is graded very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means the internal character reinforces the natural charm without distracting from the overall purity. There has been no enhancement, the gem is entirely natural, and its origin is the storied island of Ceylon Sri Lanka, a source renowned for specimens that combine warmth and refinement. At The Natural Gemstone Company we take pride in presenting stones that are authentic, unaltered, and ready to become the centerpiece of a lifelong story.

Imagine designing an heirloom piece around this glorious moonstone, a pendant that sits just above the heart, a ring that catches morning light as you reach for a loved one, a brooch that becomes a signature of elegance, or a bespoke setting that reflects a personal narrative. The soft brown hue pairs beautifully with warm tones, imagine soft golds and antique finishes that amplify the gem warmth, or let it contrast against cooler metals for a modern and striking look. Because of its size and even shape, the stone lends itself to many creative possibilities, and because it is natural and untreated, each setting will be unique, destined to bear the mark of the life lived around it. Gifts carry stories, and a gem of this presence becomes a story maker, a ring for an anniversary that reminds of quiet evenings and promises, a pendant for a graduation that marks courage and new beginnings, or a special surprise that elicits a joyful, surprised embrace.
