Alexandrite is a type of chrysoberyl mineral with a characteristic color-changing effect. Chrysoberyl has been known since antiquity, it got its name from the Greek chrisos – gold. In daylight, alexandrite changes color to green, and in the evening, under artificial light, it becomes crimson. On this site – https://jupitergem.com/gemstones/alexandrite you can find stones that change color from blue-green changing to pinkish purple, and from very dark brown changing to very dark purplish brownish red, each of which can complement jewelry and make it very beautiful.
