BUYER MANAGER

Alexandrite Stone Specification:- Gem Experts state that the bright color-change effect or the Alexandrite effect is the main reason a Chrysoberyl should take Alexandrite into consideration. Nonetheless, the quality of this gemstone is determined by additional elements, and the worth, quality, and authenticity of the gemstone may be assessed based on these qualities. Among the parameters are:

Origin-  For a considerable amount of time, the only source of massive, exceptionally high-quality Alexandrites was the Ural area of Russia. Russia produced the most precious Alexandrites on the market as it was the first to supply the finest and highest grade Alexandrites. There are also excellent examples of natural Alexandrite stone in Tanzania, Madagascar, Brazil, India, Sri Lanka, and Myanmar (Burma). The second most sought-after kind is Brazilian and Indian Alexandrite, which is also comparatively less costly than Russian Alexandrite.

Colour - Often characterized as 'Ruby' at night and 'Emerald' by day, the colour-changing phenomena observed in Alexandrite is called the 'Alexandrite effect. Under natural daylight, the colour changes to a blue-green hue, and when exposed to artificial yellow light, it changes to a reddish-purplish or brownish-red hue. Alexandrite stone's quality and cost are determined by how much the colour changes. Alexandrite has a greater value the higher its intensity and uniformity of colour. When compared to Russian Alexandrite, Sri Lankan Alexandrite has less uniformity in colour.

Clarity-With its clear transparency and apparent imperfections and defects, Alexandrite is a Type II clarity gemstone. Handprints, hollow tubes, rutile, and multi-phase inclusions are among the forms of inclusions seen in Alexandrite. It can significantly impact the Alexandrite quality if these inclusions are present and readily apparent to the naked eye. High-quality faceted Alexandrite gemstones with little obvious faults and remarkable clarity are becoming increasingly difficult to locate, and their price is rising accordingly. The chatoyancy or "cat's eye" look that certain Alexandrite specimens produce drives up the cost of the stone.

Cut- Alexandrite is frequently formed into step-cut pavilions and brilliant-cut crowns. Alexandrite is faceted into kite or triangle shapes since it is rare, although some examples contain concentric rows of parallel facets. To get the greatest color change, Alexandrite requires a flawless cut, which can be difficult for gem cutters to achieve.

Carat Weight- Exceptional caliber A one-carat or more Alexandrite stone is very uncommon and expensive. Smaller and lighter Alexandrite is preferred by jewelry industry professionals.
