Edwardian 18ct Gold & Platinum, Natural Colour Change Alexandrite & Diamond Cluster Ring

335M
Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A rare 18ct gold and platinum ring, made circa 1910 and set with a natural alexandrite weighing 1.71 carats. Alexandrite is the variety of chrysoberyl that displays a change of colour from green to red. A distinct colour change is the primary qualification for a chrysoberyl to be considered alexandrite. In the evening under incandescent light the stone is strongly tilted to the red end, thus causing alexandrite to appear reddish. Daylight, is more equally balanced, since our eyes are most sensitive to green light, the balance is tipped to the green side. The alexandrite in this ring is fantastic and is surrounded by well matched white diamonds. This ring comes with a gemmological certificate.It is also the birthstone for June.

A very rare and beautiful ring . I have never had an alexandrite ring before!
