1.37 Ct. Alexandrite from Russia

This exceptional natural alexandrite offered by The Natural Gemstone Company is a transparent 1.37 carat emerald cut specimen, measuring 7.85 millimeters by 4.83 millimeters by 3.64 millimeters. Originating from Russia, this stone displays the classic alexandrite color change from greenish tones in fluorescent light to pinkish tones in incandescent light, with a light color intensity that makes the transition elegant and refined. The clarity is graded included, evaluated at eye level, which indicates visible inclusions that are characteristic of natural alexandrite and provide a fingerprint of origin and authenticity. There has been no enhancement, and the combination of natural origin, documented clarity grading, and absence of treatments reinforces the gem as an attractive option for an educated buyer seeking provenance and integrity.

Although not internally flawless, the gem benefits from an excellent polish and precise emerald cut faceting that maximizes its optical performance from every angle, creating a consistent and pleasing face up appearance. The emerald cut emphasizes broad, parallel facets that allow color change to present uniformly across the table, while the excellent polish produces crisp facet junctions and minimal surface disruption, so light reflects cleanly and the change in hue reads clearly under different lighting conditions. From profile views the depth and pavilion angles reveal controlled light return, and the transparency allows inclusions to lend character without overwhelming the visual effect, preserving both brilliance and the rare alexandrite phenomenon. For the discerning collector or jeweler, the combination of Russian origin, natural color change, measurable dimensions, and untreated status makes this piece a valuable and trustworthy acquisition, and The Natural Gemstone Company is pleased to present this stone with full disclosure of its grading and attributes.
