A small section of rough Alexandrite. When cut it can range in value up to $70,000/caret. It is my favorite gem. I don't wear jewelry but am amazed by the beauty and color changes of this gem, which happens to be my birthstone. The photo is from a jewelry site; my little piece looks like gray rock, but it could become this if I wanted. I don't want. I am happy having it and knowing what it could become.
