  • Alexandrite is a rare and highly prized gemstone renowned for its remarkable color-changing properties. As a variety of the mineral chrysoberyl, it contains trace amounts of chromium, which are responsible for its dramatic color shift.
  • Alexandrite is famously described as: “Emerald by day, ruby by night.” In natural daylight, it exhibits a greenish to bluish-green hue, whereas under incandescent or candlelight, it transforms into a reddish to purplish-red color.
  • With a hardness of 8.5 on the Mohs scale, alexandrite is a durable gemstone suitable for everyday wear in jewelry such as rings and pendants.
  • Natural alexandrite is exceptionally rare and valuable, particularly stones that display a strong color change and possess good clarity. In fine quality, it is even rarer than diamonds.
  • Symbolically, alexandrite is associated with luck, prosperity, and change. It also serves as a birthstone for June, alongside pearl and moonstone.
