"A nice sized Russian Lab Alexandrite pair of earrings with a sturdy thick gold setting!
They stay more purple then I'd like them too but just have to wear more of that color! These earrings are too nice not to wear often."

"These earrings are perfect in size. They have a nice color to them. However, I simply wasn't blown away by them, so I am returning them. They somehow didn't remind me at all of alexandrite. I suppose it's because they were bluish in color, and then changing to a purplish hue. If I would have paid more attention to the internet picture, I would have noticed that they weren't a green color at all."

"Many good things have already been said about these studs, so there is not much I can add as I am in agreement with most of the positive statements, but I will say that although when wearing earrings you yourself can not see and enjoy them, so they are pretty much there for others to view, however when I have these on they not only look good, but they make me feel good, I feel luxurious and pretty, and is'nt that what makes it all worth it? Thank you JTV."

Fast Facts
| A member of the Chrysoberyl family, alexandrite holds a prized and highly priced position among jewelry and gem collectors. |
| A color change stone, alexandrite can appear green in daylight and change to a raspberry color in incandescent light, but other color changes are also highly prized. |
| Alexandrite was discovered in 1830 in the Ural Mountains on the day Czar Alexander II came of age, and thus the stones were named in his honor. |
 The primary sources for alexandrite are Sri Lanka, Brazil, Burma (Myanmar), Madagascar and Russia.
|
|
Alexandrite is a highly prized variety of chrysoberyl. Alexandrite only forms when aluminum/beryllium and chrome (which rarely occurs in nature) come together, accounting for its rarity. On Mohs’ scale of hardness, alexandrite is 8.5. It has a strong vitreous luster and primary sources include Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, and Brazil (Minas Gerais).
Color
Alexandrite is typically found in blue, blue-green, and brownish-green shades. However, this phenomenal gem is known as "emerald by day, ruby by night" because of its ability to change color, depending on the type of light in which it's viewed. In the daylight and fluorescent light, alexandrite appears in shades of blue and green, but in tungsten (incandescent) light, it appears in shades of red. Other alexandrite color changes are possible (from blue to purple, from greenish blue to reddish blue, from brownish-green to brownish-red, etc.) and also highly prized.
