If you want a moonstone large enough to act as the centrepiece of a piece of jewellery, 6.05 carats is the sort of weight that does it. It suits someone planning a pendant or a broad statement ring who prefers a soft glow to sharp sparkle.

What the stone looks like

This is a natural moonstone, white with a blue sheen that drifts across the surface as you tilt it. Hardness is 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale, so it is comfortable in a pendant or earrings but wants some care in a ring worn every day. The price is Rs. 3,900, which works out at about Rs. 645 per carat.

Treatment, setting and next steps

Enhancement is not usual for moonstone, but message us on WhatsApp quoting GS-00092 and we will tell you what we know about this exact stone; independent lab testing can be arranged on request. A bezel setting protects the edges, and silver suits the cool sheen. A custom silver ring setting can be discussed on WhatsApp. Compare similar pieces in our moonstone collection and read the moonstone care notes before wearing it.

Cash on Delivery is available across Pakistan, so you inspect the stone before paying, and returns are accepted within 7 days of delivery.

This particular stone

This listing is one natural moonstone with a weight of 6.05 Carat. Its price is Rs. 3,900 — roughly Rs. 645 for each carat. Treatment: treatment not tested. Quote reference GS-00092 when you message us about it. The photographs show this exact stone, so what arrives at your door is the piece you chose on screen.

From six carats up a stone becomes the centre of attention. It wants a broader shank or a secure claw setting and suits an occasion ring, a signet or a centre pendant. Clean natural material of this size turns up far less often, and the per-carat rate reflects that.

On the Mohs scale moonstone rates 6 to 6.5. That is middle-of-the-road hardness: comfortable in pendants and earrings, and in rings worn with some care. Store it apart from harder stones so it does not pick up scratches, and wipe it with a damp cloth rather than scrubbing.

Whoever you buy moonstone from, make sure of three things: the stone is natural rather than lab-grown, glass or glass-filled; any treatment is stated in writing; and the weight quoted is the weight of the finished stone. We check every moonstone for those three points before it is listed, a certificate is available on request, and because you pay on delivery you can look at the stone — or have it tested — before any money changes hands.
