Sri Lankan Grey Moonstone Bracelet — FAQ

What is Sri Lankan grey moonstone?
Grey moonstone is a feldspar (orthoclase/oligoclase) that shows soft adularescence—a floating sheen—over a cool grey body color. Sri Lankan (Ceylon) material is admired for its refined glow and clean polish.
What color and sheen should I expect?
Expect misty light-to-medium grey with a silvery or bluish sheen that moves under light. Slight internal clouds or lamellar layers are normal in genuine moonstone beads.
Grey moonstone vs black or white moonstone — what’s the difference?
Grey moonstone sits between white and black varieties: subtler than white, lighter than black. All may show adularescence, but grey emphasizes a cool, smoky glow ideal for minimalist stacks.
Is the glow the same as labradorite flash?
No. Moonstone has adularescence (soft, floating sheen). Labradorite shows labradorescence—bold electric flashes. Grey moonstone’s look is more subtle and dreamy.
Is grey moonstone durable for daily bracelets?
Yes—moonstone is about Mohs 6–6.5. Suitable for everyday wear with care; avoid sharp blows and abrasive surfaces to preserve the polish.
How do I clean a grey moonstone bracelet?
Use lukewarm water + mild soap, wipe with a soft cloth, and dry fully. Avoid ultrasonic/steam cleaners and harsh chemicals, especially with plated components.
Can I shower or swim with it?
Brief clean-water contact is fine, but avoid chlorine, saltwater, and hot tubs. Dry thoroughly to protect sheen and string/metal parts.
How can I tell real moonstone from glass or dyed quartz?
Real moonstone shows a moving sheen and internal layering; glass looks uniform and may show bubbles; dyed quartz can appear overly vivid and lacks the floating glow.
What does grey moonstone symbolize?
In crystal traditions, it’s chosen as a reminder of calm reflection, balanced emotions, and intuitive clarity—belief-based cues for mindful routines.
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 = sleek and stack-friendly; 8 mm = bolder presence and a stronger sheen as a single-strand focal.
What stacks well with Sri Lankan grey moonstone?
For contrast and texture, pair with baroque pearls. For warmth, add gold-plated accents; for clarity, mix clear quartz or black onyx.
