8.96 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Moonstone has been admired for millennia for its subtle glow and classical elegance, and this yellow moonstone carries that legacy with graceful restraint. Sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka, it is a translucent oval weighing 8.96 carats, with dimensions 14.06 x 11.86 x 7.56 mm, cut en cabochon to reveal a smooth, luminous surface and a gentle internal shimmer. The stone displays a light color intensity and an excellent polish, and its clarity is graded very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a characteristic that affirms its natural origin and lends character rather than distraction. There is no enhancement, so what you see is the original beauty formed by nature and refined by expert hands. In civilizations from the ancient Romans to South Asian royal courts, moonstone symbolized the moon and its timeless cycles, a fitting provenance for a gem that fits both classical designs and enduring heirloom pieces.
