0.82 Ct. Cabochon Alexandrite from Russia

There is a quiet magic in a stone that changes like a memory, a whisper of green turning to warm brown as the light shifts, and this translucent 0.82 carat oval alexandrite holds that gentle alchemy within its heart. Picture a soft, oval silhouette, 7.06 x 4.87 x 2.59 mm, shaped into a cabochon cut that cradles light like a moonlit pond, its curved surface inviting the eye to linger. Under daylight it breathes a cool, verdant green, and beneath incandescent glow it becomes a private autumn, a brown that feels like candlelight and wool. The medium intense color intensity gives it presence without shouting, a depth that reveals itself slowly, like a poem read at twilight. Small internal stories are visible, inclusions that grant the gem its honest voice, clarity graded as included when viewed at eye level, a reminder that the most treasured things carry their histories with grace.

This alexandrite bears the stamp of origin and purity, born of Russia, untouched by enhancement, a natural testament to time and geology, and finished with an excellent polish that lets the surface sing when it catches light. At 0.82 carat, it is intimate and commanding, an ideal centerpiece for a ring meant to symbolize a promise that changes and grows, mirroring seasons and moods. The cabochon form softens the stone into tenderness, making it perfect for a setting that cradles and protects, for a design that values warmth and sentiment. Imagine this gem in a bezel that hugs its curve, set for a hand that will wear it daily, watching the hues transform with every embrace. At The Natural Gemstone Company we cherish such rare moments of nature preserved, and we present this alexandrite as more than a jewel, as a companion for vows and quiet mornings, for anniversaries and new beginnings.
