Ok so I'm currently stationed in Afghanistan and wanted to get an engagement ring made, so I went and picked the Diamonds, went to pick Alexandrite but he didn't have any in his shop because he explained to me it was rare. (I didn't know anything about it at the time other than it changed colors). So a Month later and I finally got the ring. When I saw it was green I thought something was wrong but he gave me the Lab test report with it proving it was real. (I now know its green as well) so I took it back to my tent and saw the color I expected (the blue-ish color) and started researching online. Found out they are green in sunlight, teal-ish in mixed light and supposedly purple/red in incandescent light. now when I look at it next to a lighter or my one light bulb I can sort of see purple but I still see the blue. it's not as dramatic as I saw on videos on youtube. but if I take a picture of it or view it on my camera phone its a nice purplish color. but not exactly the red I see in pictures online. Anyways I took some pictures of it and was curious if anyone can Verify it?
Thanks!
Thanks!
