how many colors have in alexandrite zem stone? what about the hardness of that stones?how to find out alexandrite stone? |
|
The main colored stone market in India is in Jaipur and that might be a good place to wholesale your stones. You could also try to find a private buyer. |
|
Alexandrites that large would very rarely be cut as rounds so I suspect that your stone is a synthetic or a lab grown stone. If you want to know for sure, send the stone to a qualified and experienced gemologist. A fine quality natural stone that size would wholesale for between $3000 to $12,000/ct. Lab grown or synthetic stones don’t have any resale value except for the value of the gold in the ring. |
|
Alexandrites are normally green, yellow green, brownish green, or bluish green in daylight and red, pinkish red, brownish red, purple, or purple red under incandescent light. The hardness of alexandrite irrespective of color is always 8.5 on the Moh's scale. |
