0.11 ct Green Alexandrite - Cushion

This 0.11-carat alexandrite is cut as a cushion measuring 3.5 x 2.7 x 1.4 mm, with a green body color, sourced from Brazil.

Alexandrite is the color-change chrysoberyl, green in daylight and red under lamplight; few gemstones genuinely change hue, and this is the one that defined the effect. Brazil has been one of the most prolific colored-gemstone sources in the world for a century, and still turns up new material on a regular basis. It is wholly untreated, its color finished by geology rather than by any furnace or enhancement.

One of a kind, it exists exactly once; there is no second example to size up or down. It is the rarer object, and the kind of gemstone that becomes an heirloom. Caveman Gems hand-selects every gemstone and films it in good light, to give you the truest look a screen can.
