East West Emerald-Cut Alexandrite Birthstone Necklace

The Color of Mystery—Worn With Intention
Subtle one moment, striking the next—our East West Emerald-Cut Alexandrite Birthstone Necklace is crafted for those who thrive in complexity. Set horizontally along a fine 18” chain, the 7x5mm emerald-cut alexandrite shifts between shades of green, blue, and violet depending on the light. The result is a shape-shifting gemstone in a deeply symbolic silhouette—modern, magical, and meant to be worn daily.

As June’s lesser-known birthstone, alexandrite has long been associated with transformation, intuition, and inner strength. It’s said to reflect the duality within us all—the polished and the raw, the steady and the shifting. Whether you wear it to honor your own evolving path or simply for its entrancing glow, it’s a piece that holds meaning beyond the surface.

Handmade in the U.S. from recycled 14K gold or sterling silver, this necklace features our signature east-west setting—a clean, linear design that symbolizes motion and growth. It’s lightweight, luminous, and layered with intention. Ideal for minimalists, mystics, and anyone who doesn’t mind a little magic in their jewelry box.
