Cultural Significance
About Alexandrite
Alexandrite is a phenomenal variety of chrysoberyl celebrated for its dramatic color change from emerald green in daylight to raspberry red under incandescent light, caused by chromium's unusual dual absorption of light. First discovered in Russia's Ural Mountains in 1830 and named after Tsar Alexander II, fine specimens are among the rarest and most valuable gemstones in the world. Today, significant sources include Brazil, Sri Lanka, and East Africa, but stones matching the original Russian standard remain extraordinarily rare.
