Sri Lanka (Ceylon) Moonstone
Sri Lanka is the traditional source of the finest blue-sheen moonstone, long considered the benchmark origin for this gemstone.
Ceylon moonstone is prized for showing a vivid, mobile blue sheen against a clean, near-colorless body — the combination most collectors and jewelry buyers specifically seek out. Its long-established gem trade has made Ceylon the reference point other origins are compared against.
