Alexandrite is the birthstone of June, and a truly a remarkable gemstone. Transforming from a beautiful teal reminiscent of a carribean ocean, to an alluring magenta in incandescent light, alexandrite is always a conversation piece. Natural alexandrite is extremely rare, and gems with strong color change are even more rare, so we use only lab created alexandrites in our jewelry. They are physically identical to their natural counterparts, with deeper, more saturated colors, and a more dramatic color change.
