1.49 Ct. Cabochon Alexandrite from Russia

Imagine holding a moment of rare magic that has been captured in a single stone, a gem that seems to change its mood with the light and the wearer. This exquisite translucent alexandrite from Russia, offered by The Natural Gemstone Company, weighs 1.49 carats and is cut into a graceful oval shape with dimensions of 8.05 x 5.57 x 3.25 mm. Its cabochon cut gives it a soft, luminous surface that invites touch and reflection, and its medium intense color brings a quiet, sophisticated depth. In daylight the gem breathes a bluish green calm, a serene whisper of forest and sea, and under incandescent glow it warms into a reddish purple glow, like a secret kept until the candles are lit. The clarity is included when evaluated at eye level, which means each internal story adds character rather than detracting from the stone, and the excellent polish ensures each surface catch of light feels deliberate and refined. There are no enhancements, this alexandrite is naturally formed, and its Russian origin ties it to a long heritage of celebrated gemstones and storied mines.

To imagine this alexandrite in jewelry is to imagine memories that become heirlooms, gifts that become declarations of love, and personal talismans that mark a life moment. Picture it set in a warm gold bezel to accentuate the green blue days, then watch how the same setting becomes intimate and romantic as the stone shifts to reddish purple in evening light. The gentle oval cabochon silhouette makes it ideal for a ring that rests against the skin, a pendant that hangs over the heart, or a pair of bespoke earrings that sway and change as you move. The included clarity gives the stone personality, a natural fingerprint that tells of the earths slow artistry, and the medium intense color intensity means the shift is meaningful and noticeable, without shouting. The excellent polish allows a smooth surface that is comfortable for everyday wear, and the no enhancement notation is a promise of authenticity and lasting value.
