1.37 Ct. Alexandrite from Brazil

When you are searching for a single stone that ends the quest for rarity, beauty, and authenticity, this Brazilian alexandrite answers that call. This transparent 1.37 carat oval gem measures 8.22 x 6.12 x 3.20 mm, and it presents a striking greenish to reddish color change that delights in different light sources. Faceted in a mixed brilliant cut with intense color intensity and an excellent polish, this gem is free of enhancement and carries the honest character of natural material, slightly included when evaluated at eye level. At The Natural Gemstone Company we understand that whether you seek an unforgettable engagement ring or a museum quality addition to a collection, you want an alexandrite that performs every time you lift it into the light, and this specimen does exactly that.

The mixed brilliant cutting style is the reason this stone lives up to its promise, because the cutter has balanced large brilliant facets on the crown with precision pavilion facets to control how light enters, scatters, and returns to the eye. Those facets create lively scintillation and strong flash, while deeper pavilion facets add depth so the green tones resolve into warm reds under incandescent light. The oval outline lengthens the path of light through the gem, enhancing color saturation and creating a broad face up presence for its carat weight. Excellent polish ensures each facet reflects light cleanly, maximizing both brilliance and the subtle interplay of hue in different environments. Slight inclusions are modest and natural, they do not interrupt the stone s play of color but rather confirm its authenticity and origin. For best effect choose an open prong or low bezel setting that allows light from multiple angles to interact with the mixed brilliant architecture, and you will see how this alexandrite from Brazil becomes the final answer to a sophisticated search for rarity, romance, and enduring beauty.
