9.05 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Deep in the lush, verdant landscapes of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, lies the birthplace of an extraordinary gem awaiting discovery. This is a region where the earth has buried precious treasures for centuries, cloaked beneath layers of time and nature. It is here, among water-washed earth and age-old rock formations, that our exquisite 9.05-carat peach moonstone begins its journey. Unearthed by skilled hands with generations of knowledge, this moonstone emerges into daylight, embodying the secrets and allure of its storied origin. The Natural Gemstone Company is proud to regard this treasure as a testament to nature’s unparalleled artistry and our commitment to preserving its integrity.

Once retrieved from the earth, the moonstone embarks on a transformative journey that will ultimately showcase the delicate beauty it has displayed for thousands of years. With dimensions of 11.92 x 11.46 x 8.90 mm and a perfectly round cabochon cut, each curve is meticulously polished to reveal a surface of unparalleled smoothness. The cabochon cut, favored for its ability to enhance phenomenas’ lustrous displays, beautifully captures the essence of the stone's traditional values and modern charm. Its translucence invites light to whisper secrets across its surface, weaving the tale of its origins. This is a moonstone that encapsulates both distant lands and tangible warmth, marrying ancient allure with contemporary elegance.

Possessing a very slightly included clarity, evaluated at eye level, this peach moonstone tells the narrative of its natural formation with subtle inclusions that enhance rather than impede its beauty. Its light color intensity whispers rather than shouts, offering a gentle, inviting hue of peach—a color reminiscent of a tranquil sunrise over the serene landscapes of its home. The excellent polish further accentuates this light, offering a surface as entrancing as calm waters kissed by dawn's first light. Unenhanced and in its purest form, this gemstone remains a true emblem of authenticity as nature intended, uncompromised and untouched by human interference.

The story this moonstone unfolds makes it ideal for custom jewelry, where size and form are as essential as the narrative they encapsulate. Its generous size allows a remarkable presence in any setting, serving as a central piece that draws admirers’ eyes to its character. Round shapes lend themselves beautifully to jewelry, echoing the cycles of life and nature, playing into centuries-old symbolism that speaks of unity and infinity. Whether nestled in a pendant close to the heart or cradled within an artistically crafted ring, this moonstone promises to create a deeply personal expression, one that is both personal and universally compelling.
