June's Birthstone — Moonstone

Updated: Jun 7

June is a unique month that boasts three stunning birthstones: Moonstone, Pearl and Alexandrite. Each gem carries its own special allure and significance, making them cherished choices for those born in this beautiful summer month.


Today, we delve into Fujimori Kajita's crowd favourite — Moonstone.


Royal Blue Moonstone vs. Cat’s Eye Moonstone: A Glimpse into Their Unique Allure

When it comes to moonstones, two captivating variations stand out: Royal Blue Moonstone and Cat’s Eye Moonstone. Each possesses a distinct beauty that makes it a desirable choice for jewellery enthusiasts.


Royal Blue Moonstone

Royal Blue Moonstone is renowned for its striking blue iridescence, which creates a mesmerising play of light on the surface of the stone. This phenomenon, known as adularescence, gives the stone an almost magical glow, reminiscent of moonlight shimmering on water. The deep blue hues of Royal Blue Moonstone evoke a sense of mystery and enchantment, making it a favourite for those who appreciate a touch of celestial elegance in their jewellery.

Cat’s Eye Moonstone

Cat’s Eye Moonstone, on the other hand, captivates with its unique optical effect known as chatoyancy. This effect creates a single, bright line of light across the stone’s surface, resembling the slit eye of a cat. The phenomenon gives the stone a dynamic, almost lifelike appearance that seems to shift and move as it catches the light. This captivating feature makes Cat’s Eye Moonstone an intriguing choice for those who are drawn to distinctive, eye-catching gemstones.




 

The Attractiveness of Each

The allure of Royal Blue Moonstone lies in its ethereal and otherworldly glow. Its vibrant blue sheen adds a touch of magic and sophistication to any piece, making it perfect for those who seek a gemstone with a serene yet striking presence.


In contrast, Cat’s Eye Moonstone offers a more dynamic and interactive visual experience. The striking chatoyancy effect provides a sense of depth and movement, capturing the viewer’s attention with its lifelike quality. This makes it ideal for those who prefer a gemstone with a unique and engaging visual appeal.


Conclusion

Both Royal Blue Moonstone and Cat’s Eye Moonstone bring their own distinctive charm and beauty to the world of gemstones.
