Photo courtesy of Africagems.comAn alexandrite ring is just one of the many valuable gem stone rings that exists today.  The alexandrite ring, one of the rarest, has the unique ability to change colors. An alexandrite ring is a regal addition to your jewelry collection.
 

 

Discovered in Russia in 1834, alexandrite is a gem stone that has been worn by many royal families. When you put on an alexandrite ring, perhaps you, too, can experience the exhilaration and joy of owning such a mysteriously wonderful piece of jewelry. Stunning in any light, the gem in the alexandrite ring has the ability to change its color depending on the brightness of the lighting. In brighter lights, your alexandrite ring should have a green or blue/green color. Subdued lighting, such as lighting from candles should give your alexandrite ring more of a reddish color.

Diamonds International A gem stone that changes color is among the rarest in the world. The best pieces of alexandrite should have a green color in brighter light and a red color in more subdued lighting conditions. Make sure the gem in your alexandrite ring is natural alexandrite. Natural alexandrite sometimes has the appearance of small, dark crystals inside the stone. Also, sometimes there is a tiny line that resembles a break in the stone. 


There are many pieces of synthetic or lab created alexandrite in existence. Synthetic or lab created alexandrite will look pink or blue in bright lights, while having a purple color in subdued lighting conditions. Check the stone in your alexandrite ring carefully. If it contains numerous bubbles or has a dirty, dull layer inside it, it could be a piece of synthetic or lab grown alexandrite. Natural Russian alexandrite is a name given to alexandrite that has been lab created in Russia.

Engagement Ring Handbook
 

 

 

Many different types of alexandrite rings for men or women are available to choose from. Alexandrite white gold rings and alexandrite and diamond rings are some of the more popular. The most common type of cut for alexandrite is an oval. While it’s important to get the size of the alexandrite ring correct, the size of the alexandrite stone is not the most important thing to consider. Quality of the stone is the most important factor.

 

Investing in an alexandrite ring, or any piece of alexandrite for that matter, is a wise thing to do. Natural alexandrite is more expensive than diamonds and should continue to rise in value. Also, it will always be in style.
