This vintage-inspired pendant pairs a moonstone cabochon with a simple, delicate setting in refined silver. When light catches it at an angle, a blue sheen appears on the surface of the stone - a phenomenon known as adularescence, which shifts as you move your head. This cool glow is the main reason to reach for this stone in the first place - the rest of the setting stays understated and lets it take centre stage. The pendant's form echoes earlier decades, but it isn't overworked - it's a simple, feminine shape without unnecessary detail.

Every moonstone used for this pendant has been individually inspected and selected for clarity and depth of sheen, and yet the price remains accessible. Silver and good natural stones get more expensive year on year, so buying a pendant like this today feels like a sound decision. The setting is made from refined sterling silver 925 of high alloy purity, free of nickel and other harmful metal additives, so contact with it does not cause allergies or irritation. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark, which attests to the origin of the silver. In old beliefs, moonstone was associated with intuition, inner awareness and moments of meditation.

The pendant looks best against a bare neckline or a simple shirt collar - the stone's blue sheen plays well with a pastel trench coat and a silk scarf in a cool tone. For a spring outfit, add a light-coloured bag and a lightweight coat in beige or ecru - it's the moonstone that draws the eye against these muted tones. It weighs only 2.7 grams, so it can be worn without any weight on the skin all day long.
