Natural Alexandrite

Beryllium aluminum oxide with trace amounts of iron and chromium is the chemical make-up of Chrysoberyl. This Chrysoberyl should not be confused with Beryl. Chrysoberyl is the third hardest popular gem placing at 8.5 in the Mohs scale and has a very interesting crystal structure. The three varietal siblings in the Chrysoberyl family are: yellow green, Cat´s eye and natural Alexandrite. Natural Alexandrite is the colour changing (pleochroism) star or Tsar of this gemstone jeweller story. The first Alexandrite were mined in the Ural Mountains, discovered in an Emerald mine.  Natural Alexandrite was discovered fortuitously on the birthday of Tsar Alexander II. The excitement of the gem was boosted because of its red and green colours reflecting the military colours of Imperial Russia. Natural Alexandrite is the birthstone for June, along with Pearl and Moonstone, and is the celebratory gem for 25^th wedding anniversaries as well. Natural, true Alexandrite is rare so make sure you only purchase from trusted jewellers.

Juwelo Alexandrite sources

Russian Alexandrite is known as the cream of the crop of this gemstone. Today, Russian output is very small. The Ural mountain range was quite famous for producing some of the finest gemstones in the world including Emerald and Alexandrite. The mining of these gems from this source lasted only 100 years, peaking in the late 19^th Century. All current sources only produce specimens periodically, making it one of the rarest gems around. Brazilian gems –have colour change of rich blues to deep red, which are said to rival the colour of the Russian gems. The Brazilian mines are only able to produce a small amount of material making them very rare as well.

India & Sri Lanka Emerald by day, Ruby by night is the romantic description used in the industry to describe these gemstones. Sri Lanka produce gemstones with amazing green colours that change to a champagne yellow in incandescent light.
