[Featured in 12563438] Malawi Moonstone (Malawi Moonstone) 2.598ct Loose

A type of feldspar found in Malawi, Southeast Africa. It is characterized by fine, iridescent streaks of light appearing within a translucent crystal. While common moonstone and rainbow moonstone are admired for the adularescence on their surface, Malawian moonstone is attractive for the way the iridescent light appears to be embedded within the crystal. This iridescence is created by the interference of light due to slight distortions or layered structures within the crystal, and the band-like brilliance that spreads in one direction creates an impressive appearance. The contrast between translucence and iridescence is beautiful, and those with particularly good color are rare due to limited production. Please enjoy the unique light expression of each individual piece.

※ We strive to ensure that the photos show the same color as the actual product, but due to lighting conditions during photography, monitor settings, etc., the actual product may appear slightly different. Also, some photos may have been taken using a penlight.

※ For products with UV fluorescence photos, a 365nm black light was used for photography. If using a light with a different wavelength (e.g., around 395nm), the fluorescence may appear faint or be difficult to confirm. The black light used in our store is here.
