SKU: GEM-000019
Alexandrite is a rare colour-changing gemstone symbolising transformation, balance and good fortune. Linked with Gemini and Number 5, it is cherished for adaptability, success and harmony between the material and spiritual worlds.

Alexandrite, known for its rare color-changing phenomenon, symbolizes transformation, balance, and fortune and resonates with Gemini and numerology No.5. Though not part of ancient Vedic Navratna, modern Vedic astrologers associate it with Mercury or Rahu energies for adaptability. In Russian imperial history, it was considered a stone of royalty and change. Greek and Roman traditions valued rare color-changing stones as signs of divine mystery. Middle Eastern jewellers prized rare gems as signs of distinction. Across Asian traditions, Alexandrite is viewed as a stone of balance between material and spiritual realms. It is traditionally chosen for adaptability, success, and dual harmony.


Types & Origins
Russian alexandrite (Ural Mountains) is historically the most prized for dramatic green-to-red color change. Brazil produces fine stones with strong shift. Sri Lanka yields lighter-toned but attractive specimens. Tanzania and Madagascar are additional modern sources.
