FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Lab-created alexandrite is chemically and optically identical to mined alexandrite. The color-change phenomenon is the same. The difference is origin: lab-grown stones are produced in controlled environments, which typically yields greater clarity and more consistent color than natural stones, which are extraordinarily rare and expensive.
Alexandrite shifts between green and red tones depending on the light source. In daylight or fluorescent light it appears teal to bluish-green. Under incandescent or candlelight it warms toward violet-red or rosy pink. The strength of the color change varies by stone.
Alexandrite is one of three June birthstones alongside pearl and moonstone, and it is widely considered the most rare and distinctive of the three. Its color-change quality makes it a uniquely memorable gift, especially for someone who appreciates unusual or meaningful jewelry.
Yes. The bezel setting holds the stone securely with a continuous rim of metal, making it one of the most protective setting styles available. It is well-suited for daily wear. Remove before swimming, heavy exercise, or prolonged chemical exposure to preserve the finish.
White gold and sterling silver complement alexandrite's cool green tones in daylight, while yellow and rose gold warm the pink and violet tones that appear under incandescent light. Either pairing works beautifully depending on the effect you prefer.
Each piece is handcrafted to order in our Steamboat Springs, Colorado studio. Please allow 2 to 3 weeks for production. In-stock pieces ordered by 1:00 pm Mountain time ship the same day. US orders over $150 include free standard shipping.
More Details
Bezel-Set Alexandrite Necklace
There are very few gemstones in the world that shift color the way alexandrite does. In morning light it leans cool and green; by candlelight it warms toward a soft, rosy pink. Worn at the collarbone on a delicate cable chain, this 3mm lab-created stone does something quietly remarkable all day long. It changes, the way you do.
Whether you are shopping for a June birthday, a personal milestone, or simply a piece that feels like it was meant for you, the Bezel-Set Alexandrite Necklace is the kind of jewelry that earns a permanent place in your rotation. Crafted in your choice of 14K gold or sterling silver, and made to order just for you.
The Bezel Setting, Explained
Alexandrite is one of the rarest and most fascinating gemstones in the world, prized for its ability to shift color with the light. This lab-created version captures that same mesmerizing quality with exceptional clarity and consistency, a color story that plays differently morning to evening, indoors and out. The phenomenon is real, the beauty is unmistakable, and the 3mm scale keeps it refined rather than showy.
The bezel setting wraps a thin rim of precious metal around the stone's perimeter, holding it securely while creating a clean, modern silhouette. It is the most protective setting style available, shielding the girdle of the stone from everyday impact. The result is a pendant you can wear every day without thinking twice about it, one that ages alongside you rather than around you.
