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

Imagine finding a pair of gemstones that do more than sparkle, that change with the light the way a memory deepens with time, that capture a moment and then reveal a secret as you move through a day. These two oval alexandrites from The Natural Gemstone Company are just that kind of treasure. One weighs 0.81 carats, the other 0.80 carats, their proportions closely matched so they will sit in perfect harmony as a pair, perhaps as earrings, perhaps as a pendant with a twin accent stone. Each gem measures 6.62 by 4.80 by 3.44 millimeters, and 6.66 by 4.95 by 3.34 millimeters, they are cut in a mixed brilliant style that brings scintillation and fire to every facet, and they are eye clean evaluated at eye level so the color sings without distraction. The color intensity is intense, the polish excellent, and the origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, no enhancement, a natural story in every facet. Hold them and you will feel a quiet thrill, the kind that comes from knowing you are holding something rare and honest, something that will become part of a lifetime of celebrations and quiet, beautiful moments.

Compared to other gemstone sets, this alexandrite pair sings in a register all their own, their color harmony subtle and sophisticated. Where a matched pair of sapphires offers steady blue confidence, and a pair of emeralds gives lush green romance, alexandrite brings drama and intimacy because it shifts between green and warm brown tones as the light changes. Within that change there is unity, the two stones moving together through light and shadow, a duet rather than two soloists. The near identical weights and the complementary oval proportions create visual symmetry that many other sets cannot achieve without compromise, because color change stones demand careful matching. If you compare this pair to matched tanzanites or spinels, you will find those stones remain faithful to a single hue, beautiful but predictable. These alexandrites surprise you, they transform evening looks into personal signature pieces, and they harmonize with metals and accent stones in ways that feel intentional and poetic. Imagine them framed by warm rose gold to amplify the brown and purple aspects, or set in platinum with diamonds to highlight the green and the scintillation, the same pair wearing two different moods and remaining undeniably, perfectly matched.

Choosing these alexandrites is like choosing to give a story, a promise, a memory that will change color with the seasons of a life. At The Natural Gemstone Company we take pride in bringing you stones that are ethically sourced and meticulously evaluated, and this pair from Ceylon Sri Lanka is a fine example of nature and craft in concert. They require no enhancement, they arrive with honest clarity and precise cutting, ready to be set into a design that will be cherished for anniversaries, milestone birthdays, or as an heirloom piece to pass forward. If you seek a pair that will feel like an intimate discovery, a gift that will be remembered every year because it changes and reveals itself anew, these alexandrites will not disappoint.
