At 0.66 carats, this oval alexandrite carries genuine size and presence, with clarity that reads clean to the eye at a glance even if it doesn't quite reach eye-clean under closer inspection — the kind of honest, natural transparency you'd expect from untreated Ural rough rather than a stone selected purely for a flawless photograph. The color performs well across both states: a bluish-green in daylight giving way to a convincing purple under incandescent light. Oval faceting suits the size, giving the stone a long, elegant face that carries the color evenly from end to end. A solid, wearable alexandrite that offers real carat weight without asking you to compromise on transparency.
