About Alexandrite
Color-change Alexandrite, the very rare color-change variety of the mineral chrysoberyl, is often described as “emerald by day, ruby by night,” for its ability to dramatically change color, depending on the light source.Our stone displays a deep violet and equally deep forest green, like medieval velvets.
It's no coincidence that this form of Alexandrite is the most traditional birthstone for the star-sign Gemini and the month of June. Gemini is called "the Twins" for a playful dual nature.
This type of Alexandrite larger than one carat is quite rare.
Collectors will take note of this unusual acquisition, and this stone would be a natural for a woman who loves surprises.
