Moonstone Jewellery

Moonstone is a captivating gemstone celebrated for its soft, luminous glow known as adularescence. With its ethereal appearance and subtle play of light, moonstone has long been associated with mystery, elegance, and timeless beauty.

At Clarindon Jewellers, we showcase moonstone in finely crafted jewellery that highlights its natural charm and refined sophistication.


What Is Moonstone?

Moonstone is a variety of feldspar, prized for its distinctive optical phenomenon that creates a floating, moon-like sheen across the surface of the stone. This effect is caused by the internal structure of the gemstone, which scatters light in a unique way.

Moonstone has been treasured for centuries and remains a favourite for those seeking jewellery with character and individuality.


The Colour & Appearance of Moonstone

Moonstone typically displays a soft, translucent body colour ranging from colourless and milky white to peach, grey, or pale blue. The most prized moonstones exhibit a strong blue adularescence that appears to glide beneath the surface as the stone moves.

This delicate glow gives moonstone its unmistakable allure.

Popular moonstone jewellery includes:

  • Bespoke moonstone jewellery, designed to individual specifications

Moonstone pairs beautifully with yellow gold, white gold, and rose gold settings.


Durability & Wearability

Moonstone has a hardness of 6–6.5 on the Mohs scale, meaning it is best suited to jewellery that is worn with care. Protective settings are recommended for rings, while earrings and pendants are ideal for regular wear.

Proper care helps maintain the stone’s surface and natural sheen.
