8.66 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

I am delighted to introduce one exquisite white moonstone offered by The Natural Gemstone Company, a gem that invites quiet wonder and timeless affection. This single translucent moonstone weighs 8.66 carats, and measures 16.32 x 12.22 x 6.30 mm, oval in shape, with a classic cabochon cut that showcases its gentle sheen. The clarity grade is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and it presents a near colorless body that allows a luminous, moonlit glow to play across its surface. The polish is excellent, and there has been no enhancement, preserving the stone in its natural state. Originating from Ceylon Sri Lanka, this moonstone carries with it the heritage of a storied gem region, and the combination of weight, dimensions, and cabochon artistry make it a singular choice for someone who wants to capture a moment or celebrate a bond.

Imagine the way this moonstone moves with light and with the rhythm of life, how its translucent depths shimmer with soft reflections that invite touch and inspire memory. A moonstone like this is more than a center stone, it is a companion for milestones and small wonders, a promise to be worn close to the heart. The cabochon cut amplifies the moon like adularescence, creating a floating band of light that seems to swim beneath the surface, and the near colorless tone makes the glow feel pure and ethereal. Set in a delicate pendant, it will rest against the skin and capture the warmth of a moment, creating a luminous focal point. Set as the heart of a ring, it will speak gently with every motion, drawing admiring glances and private smiles. Choosing this moonstone from The Natural Gemstone Company is a decision to gift an experience that lasts, a way to mark a day with something that grows more meaningful with time.

When you select a natural gemstone, provenance and care matter, and this moonstone is offered with a clear, honest description that honors its natural beauty. Because it is untreated, with no enhancement, the gem presents an authentic character that collectors and romantics alike appreciate. The very slightly included clarity grading, evaluated at eye level, means the stone appears eye clean to most observers, while retaining the natural internal features that speak to its journey. Ceylon Sri Lanka supplies many of the worlds most poetic moonstones, and this specimen reflects the island origins in its refined translucency and balanced tone. Moonstone is softer than many crystallized gems, so I recommend protective settings that cradle the cabochon, and gentle daily care, avoiding harsh chemicals, and using warm soapy water and a soft cloth for cleaning. Please avoid aggressive ultrasonic cleaning and sharp impacts, and your moonstone will continue to glow with the same serene light that makes it so special.

As a member of The Natural Gemstone Company sales team I am here to help you imagine the perfect setting and to assist with any bespoke design you may desire, whether you prefer the cool whisper of white gold, the classic warmth of yellow gold, the romantic blush of rose gold, or the timeless simplicity of sterling silver. This moonstone is ready to be transformed into a family heirloom, a bridal treasure, or a gift that marks a new chapter, and we can discuss mounting options that protect and enhance the cabochon, while allowing that inner glow to remain the focus. If you are seeking a gem that offers both understated elegance and emotional resonance, this white moonstone from Ceylon Sri Lanka is a rare opportunity.
