This natural Moonstone is a 4.039 carat oval cabochon displaying a soft light blue adularescence over a milky white to translucent body. The optical effect appears as a delicate blue sheen that becomes more visible under directional light and shifts subtly as the gemstone is moved.
Measuring approximately 11.2 × 8.8 × 4.9 mm, the stone has a balanced oval form and a smooth cabochon profile that allows the internal feldspar structure and adularescence to remain clearly visible. Its relatively compact size makes it suitable for a ring, pendant or bespoke jewellery design where a subtle rather than highly dramatic Moonstone effect is preferred.
The gemstone shows natural internal characteristics, including a visible internal fissure and minor structural features associated with its geological formation. Slight inequalities are also present on the flatter surface area, giving the cabochon a less perfectly uniform finish while preserving the natural character of the stone.
The body ranges from milky translucent to clearer areas, with internal veils and structural variation contributing to the shifting light response. The blue adularescence is lighter and more delicate than in strongly saturated blue Moonstones, giving the stone a softer and more understated appearance.
No indications of heating or any other treatment have been observed. The gemstone is therefore presented as a natural, untreated Moonstone, with its optical effect and internal characteristics preserved in their natural state.
