This handsome vintage ladies’ ring features a synthetic alexandrite at the center! This vintage gem is always in high demand, particularly in the high quality of this stone. Synthetic Alexandrite changes color with the light in which it’s viewed, in an array of hues from teal to rich purple. Set into a lovely vintage mounting with a filigree, simple frame around the stone, this ring is easy to wear and set low to the hand.
This stone dates back to the 1950s when synthetic corundum was produced to imitate synthetic alexandrite. In the vintage and estate industry, these synthetic corundum (synthetic sapphire) gemstones from this period are almost always referred to as synthetic alexandrite even though they are chemically synthetic corundum. The chemical properties of this stone are synthetic corundum but the trade name is synthetic alexandrite.
