Details
Two clean baguettes flank an oval alexandrite, drawing long straight lines out to the band and stretching the whole ring down the finger. The elongated oval faces up larger for its weight, so its colour play covers more of the hand, teal in daylight, purplish-red by lamp. The lab-created center runs 1.16 to 2.52 carat, chosen for a lively change and a clear face. Alexandrite is chrysoberyl at 8.5 on the Mohs scale, and its colour change is permanent. A natural alexandrite center is available by concierge quote.
Shown complete with a real Oval alexandrite center from 1.16 to 2.52 carat, a lab-created colour-change alexandrite, from $1,319 all-in. The price is the finished ring: setting, the alexandrite center you choose, and the labor to set and size it. Alexandrite is a colour-change chrysoberyl at 8.5 on the Mohs scale, bluish-green in daylight and purplish-red under lamplight, and durable enough for everyday wear. It is genuine chrysoberyl, not colour-change sapphire and not a simulant. These calibrated stones ship without an individual lab report.

Questions
What is at the center? A real lab-created Oval alexandrite, from 1.16 to 2.52 carat. Choose the carat and metal on this page.
Is a lab-created alexandrite real? Yes. It is true alexandrite (chrysoberyl) with the same 8.5 Mohs hardness and the same real bluish-green to purplish-red colour change as a mined stone, grown in a controlled environment for a cleaner face at a lower price. It is not glass and not a look-alike.
What is the colour change? Alexandrite reads bluish-green to teal in daylight and cool light, then shifts to a purplish-red or raspberry under incandescent lamplight and candlelight. The change is real, reversible, and permanent.
Is this colour-change sapphire sold as alexandrite? No. This is genuine chrysoberyl alexandrite, not colour-change corundum. Alexandrite is its own mineral at 8.5 on the Mohs scale, and we describe it accurately rather than blur it with sapphire.
Can I get a natural alexandrite? Yes, as a concierge-quoted special order. Natural alexandrite is one of the rarest gems on earth, sold as individual stones rather than calibrated centers, and priced accordingly.
Does it come with a certificate? These calibrated stones ship without an individual lab report. We hand-check every one for a strong colour change and a clean face.
Is the price all-in? Yes. The price is the complete ring with the alexandrite you select, set and sized to order.
