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

Alexandrite has long been prized by connoisseurs for its rare color behavior and its association with royal jewelry cabinets of the past, and this matched pair embodies that legacy. Each stone is a beautiful, transparent alexandrite, weighing 0.51 carats and 0.50 carats respectively, cut in a classical oval shape that flatters the gem and the hand. The stones measure 5.83 x 4.03 x 2.96 mm and 5.78 x 4.10 x 2.83 mm, and display the characteristic green to brown shift that has captivated collectors for centuries. Cut as mixed brilliant cuts with excellent polish, these gems reflect light with a refined sparkle that complements their medium intense color intensity. Clarity is graded very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which speaks to their natural beauty and authenticity, and they are offered with no enhancement, sourced from the storied mines of Ceylon Sri Lanka.

Owning this pair is an investment in beauty and craftsmanship that reaches beyond the immediate pleasure of their color and cut. Alexandrite has been treasured across eras for its rarity and symbolic associations with change and good fortune, making it a stone that carries history forward when set into a ring, pendant, or cufflinks meant to be passed down. The symmetry of this matched pair makes them ideal for a truly timeless set, whether for an elegant pair of earrings or for bespoke designs that require perfect companions. The mixed brilliant cuts reflect the cutter's skill in balancing sparkle and color, and the excellent polish allows polished facets to interact with light in a way that enhances the stone's natural color shift, adding to long term desirability and potential value retention.
