Alexandrite is, mineralogically, a variety of chrysoberyl. It is the same mineral as the stone commonly known as cat's eye. Among chrysoberyls, those that change color from red to green depending on the type of light are called alexandrite, and those that have a line like a cat's eye in the center are called cat's eye. Alexandrite was discovered in 1830 in an emerald mine in the Ural Mountains of the Russian Empire. It was green when it was first unearthed, but when illuminated by candlelight at night, it changed to a deep red color (a reddish-purple hue), attracting attention as a rare gemstone with color-change properties (pleochroism). The color-change effect is the property of appearing to have different colors when viewed in sunlight or fluorescent light versus incandescent light. Alexandrite has a special property of reacting to both the "color elements of sunlight" and the "color elements of incandescent light." It is said to have the following effects: - Brings victory and success - Self-growth - Career luck - Protection against evil and bad luck - Love luck - Self-love, self-reliance - Unleashing creativity - Balancing the mind and reducing stress and anxiety Product Details Material: K18WG (18-karat white gold) Alexandrite: 0.22ct Video https://youtube.com/shorts/eATRbNsHtag?si=PuKC6cGXGQplcr_t *Due to being a natural stone, there may be fine chips, scratches, unevenness, and cracks on the surface. *We take photos and edit them to resemble the actual product as closely as possible, but depending on your monitor, the color may appear different, such as appearing fluorescent.
