This luminous sugarloaf moonstone was once a lonely stickpin I reimagined as a ring with a wide 12mm 14k gold band. The sugarloaf moonstone is approximately 10.5 carats, measuring 13.54 x 10.80 x 9.98 deep. Size 5
High-quality moonstones that exhibit the best adularescence or blue flash, tend to be somewhat clear or at least semi-transparent, like this one. These clearer stones allow more light to penetrate and interact with the thin internal layers of feldspar, producing a more pronounced and striking adularescence.
Lower-quality moonstones may be more opaque, which diminishes the clarity and intensity of the billowy flash. The most sought after moonstones have a translucent body with minimal inclusions, allowing the blue sheen to stand out vividly like this one.
