6 mmround faceted cabochon forsetting or gluing
This gemstone cabochon with flat base is made of Rainbow moonstone.
Did you know?
Moonstone, also known as moonstone , comes from the names "kanta" meaning "beloved" and "sanskrit chandra" meaning "moon".
Its color is quite specific: colorless with white, bluish and yellow reflections, hence its rainbow title.
Our ancestors saw in it a great resemblance to the moon and its clarity. In ancient times, moonstone was the object of divination and was considered the stone of the goddesses.
But here we'll be focusing on its aesthetic qualities rather than its virtues and history.

The combinations are endless, so here are a few ideas for creations and types of support suitable for round cabochons, but above all, let your creative spirit run wild and have fun!
