5.25 Ct. Alexandrite from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

What truly sets this alexandrite apart is the way its flawless qualities enhance its beauty from every angle, a harmony of nature and masterful cutting. With a clarity grade of very slightly included at eye level, the stone is essentially clean to the eye, allowing light to travel unobstructed through its body and to reveal the full depth of its color change. The medium color intensity strikes the perfect balance between subtlety and presence, giving the greenish tones a fresh, dewy life in daylight, and allowing the warm orangish tones to glow like a private sunset under warmer light. The mixed brilliant cut has been chosen to maximize both scintillation and color play, combining the crisp sparkle of brilliant facets with the elegant proportions of an oval outline. An excellent polish finishes each facet to mirror smoothness, so every surface gleams and every angle returns a new, thrilling flash of color and light.
