8.14 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine slipping on a gemstone that seems to hold moonlight within its heart, a gentle glow that rises and falls with every turn of your wrist, evoking memories of quiet nights under a clear sky, promises kept, and the warm excitement of a gift given straight from the heart. This is the feeling that our 8.14 carat white moonstone brings, a translucent oval that draws your eye with a whisper rather than a shout. Measuring 12.37 by 10.03 by 8.65 mm, the oval shape is perfectly balanced for a ring, pendant, or heirloom piece meant to travel through generations. The cabochon cut enhances the stone’s soft, internal shimmer, and the excellent polish produces a mirror like surface that plays with light, creating moments of pure delight whenever it catches the sun or a candle flame. Near colorless in intensity, its subtle, silvery luminosity reads as pure and timeless, a quiet star that complements every skin tone and every style, from the most delicate vintage designs to clean contemporary settings.

For those who cherish authenticity, this moonstone is a jewel of genuine provenance and natural integrity. Originating from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a region famous for producing moonstones of exceptional character, this gem bears no enhancements, so what you see is the stone itself, shaped by time and nature. The clarity grade is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means the stone has life and personality without visible distractions, tiny marks that whisper of the earth it came from and the journey it made to become this polished treasure. A cabochon cut was chosen to celebrate the moonstone’s intrinsic optical effects, and the excellent polish ensures a silky touch against the skin and a lasting brilliance as it moves. Because there are no chemical or heat treatments, the moonstone’s natural behavior over the years will be gentle and predictable, responding beautifully to ordinary care. Consider settings that cradle the cabochon, such as a low bezel for everyday wear, or a floating pendant that lets the gem catch light from every angle, each choice allowing its understated magic to become part of your daily story.

At The Natural Gemstone Company we understand that a gem is more than a beautiful object, it is an emotion made tangible, an emblem of love, a keepsake for anniversaries, birthdays, or for the quiet celebration of your own milestones. This white moonstone promises to continue captivating your heart and those of your loved ones for years to come, its soft adularescence maturing into familiar comfort, carrying with it memories of the moments when it first joined your life. With simple care, avoiding harsh chemicals and the occasional gentle clean with warm soapy water, its excellent polish and natural clarity will remain a lasting canvas for light. Let this 8.14 carat oval moonstone be the beginning of a new family story, a piece that grows in meaning with time, and a daily reminder of joy, love, and the quiet thrill of owning something utterly natural and remarkably beautiful.
