About this stone.
Is this stone treated?
No. This Fancy Moonstone is 100% natural with no heat, diffusion, dyeing, or fracture-filling treatment. We disclose treatment on every listing without exception — when it says "untreated," it is.
Where is this stone from?
This piece is from Karnataka, India.When we know the specific city or mine, we tag it on every listing. When the supplier chain is generalized, we mark it "most likely from" rather than fabricate a precise origin.

Yes. GIA certification is available as a $95 add-on after checkout. Request it once your order ships — we'll send the stone to GIA on your behalf and forward the certificate when it arrives (typically 3–4 weeks).
What's your return policy?
Every stone comes with a 30-day inspection window. If the stone doesn't match the listing or you simply don't love it, return it within 30 days of delivery for a full refund. We cover return shipping. No restocking fees, no questions.
How long does shipping take?
Orders ship from the US within 1–2 business days. Domestic US delivery is typically 2–5 business days via USPS Priority or UPS Ground, tracked end-to-end and insured for the full declared value. International shipping is available at checkout.
