Sri Lanka Orange Moonstone Bracelet — FAQ

What is Sri Lanka (Ceylon) orange moonstone?
Orange moonstone is a feldspar (orthoclase/oligoclase) showing soft adularescence—a floating sheen over a peach-to-cinnamon body color. Sri Lankan material is admired for its warm glow and fine polish.
What color should I expect?
Natural hues range from peach, apricot, and coppery orange to light tan, often with a silvery or bluish sheen. Subtle clouds and lamellar layers are normal in genuine moonstone.
Is the shimmer the same as sunstone glitter?
No. Moonstone shows adularescence (soft floating sheen). Sunstone shows aventurescence (sparkly coppery flashes from platelets). Orange moonstone is about glow, not glitter.
How does Sri Lankan orange moonstone differ from other peach moonstone?
Sri Lankan material tends to show a cleaner body color and refined sheen. Some other sources can be more opaque or brownish; grading still varies bead to bead.
Is orange moonstone durable for bracelets?
Yes—moonstone is about Mohs 6–6.5. Suitable for everyday wear with care; avoid hard knocks and abrasive contact to preserve the polish.
How do I clean an orange moonstone bracelet?
Use lukewarm water + mild soap, wipe with a soft cloth, and dry fully. Avoid ultrasonic or steam cleaners and keep away from harsh chemicals.
Can I wear it in the shower or while swimming?
Brief clean-water contact is fine, but avoid chlorine, saltwater, and hot tubs. Dry thoroughly to protect shine and elastic/metal components.
How can I tell real orange moonstone from glass or dyed quartz?
Real moonstone shows sheen that moves with light and natural internal layering; glass is uniform and may show bubbles. Dyed quartz often looks overly vivid and lacks the floating sheen.
What does orange moonstone symbolize?
In crystal traditions, it’s chosen as a reminder of warmth, optimism, and balanced emotions—popular for intention-setting and mindful routines (belief-based).
What stacks well with orange moonstone?
For glow and contrast, pair with baroque pearls or gold-plated accents. For balance, add clear quartz or smoky quartz in your stack.
How do I choose the right bracelet size?
Measure a snug wrist and add 0.5–0.7 in (1.2–1.8 cm) for elastic comfort. Small ≈ 5.5–6 in, Medium ≈ 6–6.5 in, Large ≈ 6.5–7 in.
6 mm vs 8 mm — which bead size is better?
6 mm is sleek and stack-friendly; 8 mm offers bolder color and sheen as a single-strand focal.
