Morphology
unstoned = stoned (semi-transparent) = un + stone + ed
Morphologically regular negation of a domain-specific adjectival use ('stoned' = set with stones); learners unfamiliar with jewellery jargon may not infer the sense immediately.
Etymology
The word unstoned joins un- ('not') with stone ('gem' or 'rock'), so in jewelry it means 'without gems' and describes a ring or necklace that has no stones set in it.
