Which moonstone to choose?
Moonstones are usually cut as beads, cabochons or faceted. In our opinion, the best cut for these gems are cabochons which show the natural adularescence phenomena within the stone. However, faceted moonstones are becoming increasingly popular because of their ability to hide inclusions within the stone. One of the most popular cuts for moonstone is the rose cut because it enhances the color and texture of the stone, adding depth and angles.
While blue moonstone is often the most popular choice for pendants, you can also find pendants in other moonstone colors. A moonstone pendant with delicate matching moonstone earrings is a beautiful and eye-catching combination. Earrings work for any occasion. You can find studs for a casual everyday outfit, and like pearls, they add a touch of class to any outfit. Long, beautiful moonstone earrings dress up any outfit immediately! You can also opt for bracelets in a variety of designs, some with a large moonstone in the center and others with a pearl necklace. They pair exceptionally well with silver colored metals or rose gold and are great for casual and formal wear.
Moonstones come in both small and large sizes. Jewelers often prefer stones in the 1 to 5 carat range, which are readily available, for their jewelry designs. The larger, clearer stones of about 15 to 20 carats are very rare and valuable. And as an anecdote, the largest moonstone ever found weighed between 300 and 450 carats!

How to wear a perfect rainbow moonstone?
Some moonstones have a rather blue, translucent and very characteristic hue throughout the stone. A shimmering effect and dreamy hues are considered very beneficial in astrology. To be most effective spiritually, they should have no visible internal inclusions when polished into cabochons, for example. Moonstones from Sri Lankan deposits are considered to be the most effective in the field of crystal healing.

Why choose a moonstone engagement ring?
The moonstone is the central choice of an engagement ring, it is eye-catching and unique. The cat's eye effect and sparkle of the stone really make it stand out. If it is surrounded by other smaller stones (darker colors are best), the natural color of the stone stands out even more. The popularity of the moonstone as a center stone for engagement rings continues to grow. Many unconventional couples trying to break away from the traditional diamond ring would find this a beautiful alternative.
However, before you get too excited, keep in mind that moonstone has a hardness of 6.0 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale. This makes it a fairly soft stone compared to sapphires or diamonds and would require care and maintenance to prolong its life. We do not recommend moonstone in engagement rings, but if it is set in a protective setting, such as a bezel or halo, and if reasonably cared for, a moonstone ring is a unique and beautiful choice.
