Moonstone
Ceylon
The more expensive of below moonstones are from an old collection and were recut in Germany.
They now have very good proportions, an excellent polish and they were cut for maximum sheen not maximum weight.
When moonstones are recut this way, the loss of weight is substantial which commands the rather high price.
However, the results are quite spectacular and speak for themselves. Have a look at the videos!
