0.18 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Alexandrite Pair from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

If you have been searching for a truly exceptional pair of gemstones that will end your hunt for originality and elegance, these matched alexandrites from The Natural Gemstone Company answer that need with confidence. Many customers tell us they want something rare, natural, and versatile enough to become the focal point of a bespoke piece, and this pair delivers on every count. Their crisp transparency and natural color change create an immediate emotional response, while their small and perfectly matched proportions allow a jeweler to craft a design that is both statement making and refined. Whether your goal is to create a bold high fashion pair of earrings that turns heads on the red carpet, or to add a rare collector grade piece to your cabinet, this pair sits at the intersection of art and gemological quality.

These alexandrites each weigh 0.09 carats, and are marquise shaped, with dimensions of 4.50 x 2.03 x 1.45 mm and 4.47 x 2.02 x 1.39 mm respectively, making them a matched pair ideal for symmetrical earring designs. They are cut as mixed brilliant cuts, delivering lively faceting while preserving the marquise silhouette, and they exhibit a clarity grade of very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means excellent visual purity for face up wear. The color intensity is medium intense, which ensures the green to purple color shift is noticeable without overwhelming delicate metalwork. The polish is excellent, and importantly these alexandrites have no enhancement, confirming their natural origin from Ceylon Sri Lanka. The natural color change is observed between fluorescent and incandescent lighting, presenting a fresh green personality under daylight or fluorescent light, and a rich purple presence when warmed by incandescent illumination. That chameleon like quality is what creates the dramatic visual story desirable in couture jewelry.

For designers and customers focused on statement earrings and high fashion silhouettes, these marquise alexandrites are a designer dream. The marquise shape elongates and flatters, allowing settings that emphasize length and movement, and in earrings the stones read as elegant, daring, and uniquely modern. Consider a minimalist east west bezel setting for a contemporary stud that still commands attention, or a double prong drop where the marquise points align with delicate chains for runway ready movement. For haute couture chandelier designs, these stones can be set as color change focal points surrounded by micro pavé diamonds to amplify contrast and sparkle, or paired with colored gemstones to create dynamic color block effects. Because they are natural and untreated, these alexandrites will maintain their inherent character in any setting, and their medium intense color change provides visual drama from both near and far, ensuring that whether the wearer is under gallery lighting or evening incandescent lights, the earrings will read as luxurious and intentional.

At The Natural Gemstone Company we understand that choosing gemstones is about more than grades and measurements, it is about finding the piece that resolves a creative brief and elevates a personal story. These matched marquise alexandrites, sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka, are natural, untreated, and ready for the jeweler or collector who needs a refined but striking focal point. They are small in carat weight but big in design potential, offering a rare combination of translucency, color change, and precise cutting that makes them particularly well suited to bespoke statement earrings.
