These alexandrite earrings feature a pair of natural earth mined alexandrite gems. Alexandrite is one of rarest and most highly sought after gems in the world. It features a fascinating color change phenomena, appearing green or blue in daylight and purple, pink or red in candle light. I consider myself fortunate to have recently been able to source a small parcel of genuine alexandrite gems at a reasonable price. It has been well over a decade since the last time I came across an affordable parcel of them.
The alexandrite in these earrings are green in fluorescent light and demonstrates a color change to pink-purple when viewed under candle light. The earring settings and backs are made of solid sterling silver. The earrings are brand new and have been appraised by Federal Gemological Laboratory Of Canada.
