1.11 Ct. Alexandrite from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine a gemstone that changes like a secret whispered between day and night, a cushion shaped alexandrite from Ceylon that captures moments and memories with every glance. This beautiful transparent 1.11 carat stone measures 1.00 x 1.00 x 1.00 mm, is faceted with a mixed brilliant cut, and shows an intense color intensity that moves from a deep green under fluorescent light to a warm brown under incandescent glow, a transformation that feels like watching two lovers trade glances across a room. The clarity is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and the excellent polish allows light to dance through every facet, creating a living fire and depth that feels both rare and intimate. No enhancement has been applied, so what you hold is pure and honest, and because it comes to you through The Natural Gemstone Company you can feel the provenance of Ceylon in the stone, the calm and history of a place known for producing gems that stir the soul.

For a custom piece this alexandrite becomes a conversation and a keepsake, and the right companions will amplify its romance and mystery. Set in warm rose gold the brownish tones bloom into a vintage embrace, and a halo of tiny champagne diamonds will catch the light and make the color change feel like a soft reveal, perfect for an engagement ring that feels uniquely personal. If you prefer a cooler, contemporary look set in platinum or white gold, flank the center with small green tsavorites or green sapphires to reinforce the vibrant green phase, creating a jewel that shifts from emerald noon to amber sunset. For a truly luxurious statement choose delicate baguette diamonds along the shoulders to add a clean, elegant contrast, or choose soft pink sapphires or light morganites to coax out the warmer brown and red undertones when the light grows intimate. Whichever path you choose this Ceylon alexandrite will become the heart of a piece that marks an anniversary, a promise, or a moment you want to hold forever, and we at The Natural Gemstone Company will help you design a ring or pendant that turns that feeling into a daily joy.
