Alexandrite stones are blue or bluish-green in color and often appear red or even magenta under an incandescent light. Alexandrite happens to be one of the few gemstones that has the ability to change color.
The alexandrite goes best with blue, black, red, and even green but tends to clash with orange and yellow. Popular settings for Alexandrite engagement rings include Mae, Everly as well as the Twist Ring. Cushion-cut Alexandrite engagement rings are also quite popular.
Alternative Gemstone Options
When it comes to alexandrite alternatives, synthetic options are often the most viable due to rarity and cost of natural alexandrite stones. Synthetic and lab grown gems are popular alternatives that will save you a fair chunk of change.
Ever since its discovery, this handsome stone has been associated with good fortune, abundance, luck and prosperity. Alexandrite is rare and valuable. How much you pay for your alexandrite will depend on more than a few factors, including where the gemstone was mined, size, and clarity. Color quality and the intensity of color change are among the most important factors.
You can ensure that your alexandrite is authentic in a few ways, including enlisting the services of an experienced gemologist or jeweler. You can check yourself on the fly by testing the color change under a variety of lighting options. In brighter light, alexandrite should appear almost in an emerald green color. In dim light, alexandrite should look red or even purple in color. If it’s hard for you to tell, there’s a chance you may not have an authentic alexandrite.

Alexandrite — The June Birthstone
The Birthstones of June “If you were born in June, your month’s birthstones are Pearl, Alexandrite, and Moonstone.
If you didn’t already know, there are some months that have multiple birthstones, whereas some only have one. Traditional birthstones are gemstones that were most commonly associated with its respective month in the early 20th century and even beyond, with Ancient Greek and Roman philosophers associating these gemstones with the star signs. Those that are more commonly known in this day and age are the modern birthstones, which were officially named by the Jewelers of America in the 1950’s.

This particular work order took over a year to fully complete, with the watch being sent back three times for all the work to be done properly. I do understand that this was harder project given that it’s a vintage Russian movement, but I can’t tell you enough how much it meant that you searched all over Russia/Ukraine for the parts needed to complete the work. The watch is running absolutely amazing and can’t believe how good it is running. It’s truly a centerpiece to my vintage watch collection and I absolutely love it. Thanks again for all the hard work and time you put into it and that’s what prompted this message. I do believe in acknowledging hard work and this is truly wonderful. Thank you again and keep up the good work.

Sent my automatic watch to these folks for repair as it was no longer keeping accurate time, they assessed the watch for needed repairs and sent me the estimate which I approved.
About three weeks later I received a email stating that my watch had shipped, they provide a tracking number that I might keep a track of it, upon receiving the watch I inspected it and have to say that they did a beautiful job on the exterior cleaning and polish plus they replaced the clasp, I can only assume that the work done to the movement is of equal quality and detail this will be born out over time as I see how the accuracy is.
They also provided the pressure test ticket in the return package.
I would recommend this company if you have need of jewelry repair.
