0.79 Ct. Alexandrite from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A jewel for the collector who seeks the rare and the authentic, this Other certified green to orange alexandrite is a singular offering from The Natural Gemstone Company, a stone that announces its scarcity with every subtle shift of light. We present one transparent specimen weighing 0.79 carat, fashioned into a sophisticated fancy shape with dimensions of 4.86 x 6.64 x 2.79 mm, faceted with a precise step cut to celebrate its internal depth and color change. The gem carries a clarity grade of very slightly included evaluated at eye level, and it shows a medium color intensity that sings in daylight and deepens toward a warm orange under incandescent light, a testament to its natural alexandrite character. The polish is excellent, the surface faceting crisp and alive, and importantly the stone is offered with no enhancement, a naturally formed treasure from Ceylon Sri Lanka that arrives to its new steward fully honest and unaltered.

Owning this alexandrite is a conscious choice, because rarity without responsibility is an empty luxury. The origin from Ceylon Sri Lanka is documented, and the Other certification accompanies the gem as part of our commitment to traceability and supply chain transparency. At The Natural Gemstone Company we work directly with small scale miners and trusted partners who practice responsible extraction, who respect artisanal communities, and who pursue environmental stewardship in sensitive mining areas. This partnership driven approach means your purchase supports fair wages and safer working conditions, and it funds practices that reduce unnecessary land disturbance and chemical use. The fact that the gem is natural and untreated reinforces its ethical value, because no enhancement was applied to modify its color or clarity, so you are acquiring an authentic geological rarity rather than a manufactured effect. For the conscious collector who measures both provenance and provenance impact, this alexandrite aligns with values of responsibility, transparency, and true rarity.

This piece is not a commodity, it is an invitation to bespoke ownership and to join an elite group of collectors who appreciate a gem that is as ethically sourced as it is visually arresting. The step cut amplifies the alexandrite phenomenon in an architectural way, creating planes of color and light that shift from a serene greenish and yellowish cast into warmer orange notes, and the dimensions and carat weight make it particularly well suited to an intimate custom setting, a refined solitaire ring, or a museum style pendant that allows the color change to be admired from every angle. For those who wish to design around the stone, warm gold tones will accentuate the orange shift and bring a vintage intimacy, while cool white metals will highlight the green and lend a modern clarity. Availability is limited to this single, certified specimen, and The Natural Gemstone Company provides full documentation of origin and certification with each sale, as well as personalized guidance for custom mounting and care. If you desire a stone that speaks to rarity, to ethical stewardship, and to timeless beauty, contact The Natural Gemstone Company to reserve this unique Ceylon alexandrite and begin the process of making a one of a kind creation that will be treasured for generations.
