1.79 Ct. Alexandrite from Russia

If you are searching for a singular center stone that will end your quest for the perfect engagement ring or a rare collector piece, this Russian alexandrite from The Natural Gemstone Company answers that call with confidence. We present a transparent 1.79 carat oval alexandrite, with graceful dimensions 8.09 by 5.92 by 4.96 mm that translate into an ideal balance of presence and wearability. The mixed brilliant cut gives lively facet play and the excellent polish maximizes surface reflection, so the stone reads larger and more brilliant than its weight might suggest. Color change is inherent to fine alexandrite, and this gem shifts from a greenish tone under fluorescent lighting to a purplish tone under incandescent lighting, creating a mesmerizing personality that will capture attention from every angle. The clarity grade is slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means the gem retains strong transparency and brilliant light performance while offering natural internal character that collectors and connoisseurs often prize. No enhancement has been applied, and the Russian origin adds historical provenance and desirability for those seeking authentic natural material.

For clients who want a statement piece, this alexandrite is tailor made, as its size and clarity work together to dominate a setting without overpowering the wearer. Set as a solitaire engagement ring, the 1.79 carat oval will read as an undeniably elegant focal point on the hand, while in a pendant or cocktail ring the mixed brilliant facets and excellent polish will deliver constant scintillation. The slightly included clarity preserves brightness and ensures the gem will sparkle across a range of lighting scenarios, whereas the medium color intensity provides saturation enough to show clear color change without losing versatility in different metals and settings. At The Natural Gemstone Company we understand that your search is about more than specifications, it is about finding a stone that completes an emotional and aesthetic vision, and this untreated Russian alexandrite is exactly that solution. If you desire custom mounting recommendations or high resolution imaging, our team will guide you to bring this remarkable gemstone into a finished piece that ends your search and begins a lifetime of admiration.
