AAA natural alexandrite is incredibly expensive ($10,000 to $30,000+ per carat), and this is one that's just about perfect - large for an Alexandrite. The color change is strong - from a rich bluish green to purple in incandescent and candlelight (a very romantic gemstone).
Alexandrite prices have been skyrocketing and are especially coveted for their rarity and beauty by every gem collector. Extremely rare, there are very few of these available especially of this size, cut, saturation and clarity.
