1.89 Ct. Alexandrite from Brazil

From the ancient pegmatites of Brazil a rare alexandrite was coaxed from the earth, a stone formed over eons under pressure and heat, carrying within it the quiet story of time. At The Natural Gemstone Company we watched that story continue, selecting a transparent 1.89 carat parcel and guiding this particular crystal to its final expression, a princess shaped faceted gem that measures 7.67 by 7.17 by 3.66 mm. The cutter respected the stone's inherent dichroic character, cutting precise facets and an exceptional pavilion to deliver intense color saturation and an excellent polish, revealing a greenish hue in daylight and a brownish warmth under incandescent light. Evaluated at eye level the clarity is very very slightly included, a mark of authenticity rather than flaw, and the piece is offered with no enhancement, a natural alexandrite from Brazil that captures the color change that has fascinated gem lovers for generations.

Beyond its physical journey this alexandrite carries a tradition of metaphysical significance, reputed to be a stone of transformation and balance, a companion for times of change and a talisman that encourages self discovery. Many believe alexandrite stimulates intuition and creativity, helping to align the heart and the mind and to bring confidence to decisions both practical and emotional. It is said to soothe emotional turbulence, to attract calm and to foster joy, while also being connected with prosperity and protection in folklore. Worn close to the skin as a center stone in a ring, the princess cut lends a modern symmetry that amplifies its presence, catching light and shifting color as it moves. At The Natural Gemstone Company we honor both the geological origin and the human meanings that gather around gems, offering this 1.89 carat Brazilian alexandrite as a wearable story, a small piece of deep time that can accompany personal transitions, creative endeavors, and everyday elegance.
