Alexandrite is the gemstone that changes colour with the light — teal or green-grey in daylight, shifting toward purplish-pink under warm light. Lab-grown alexandrite brings that effect to an engagement ring at a price natural alexandrite simply can't match.

Its crystal structure absorbs light differently depending on the light source, shifting its apparent colour between daylight and incandescent light.
How does lab-grown alexandrite compare to natural?
