0.63 Ct. Alexandrite from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Alexandrite carries one of the most romantic and storied legacies among gemstones, a gem celebrated since its discovery in the nineteenth century and treasured by collectors and connoisseurs for its dramatic color change and regal associations, and this heart shape alexandrite from Ceylon Sri Lanka embodies that timeless legacy with a design that speaks to classical elegance and personal symbolism. Hand cut in a faceted mixed brilliant style, the gem reveals its heritage through precise facet arrangement, superior polish, and a silhouette that recalls heirloom jewels passed down through generations, and its medium color intensity allows the rare greenish to orangish shift to read beautifully across different lighting, evoking candlelit salons and daylight promenades alike. Slightly included when evaluated at eye level, this stone carries natural inclusions that affirm its authenticity and origin, adding character without diminishing its visual appeal, and the excellent polish enhances light return and fire, making this alexandrite a refined expression of both history and enduring craftsmanship.

At 0.63 carat, and measuring 4.91 by 6.00 by 3.15 millimeters, this heart shape alexandrite is ideally sized to function as a true statement piece, offering presence and elegance without overwhelming the wearer, and the mixed brilliant cut maximizes brilliance while maintaining the intimate charm of its heart silhouette. Its transparency and clarity allow the gem to speak with clarity from the center of a ring, pendant, or bespoke setting, while the natural, untreated state of no enhancement ensures you own a gem in its original form, faithful to the legacy of Ceylon gem cutters. For those seeking a classic, versatile setting, warm gold will emphasize the stone warm tones under incandescent light, while white metals will accentuate the greenish hues under daylight, and custom designs that cradle the heart will preserve its proportions and showcase the color change in motion. The Natural Gemstone Company is pleased to present this exceptional alexandrite for collectors and romantics who value history, natural beauty, and a gem that will become a treasured heirloom.
