If it’s a genuine Alexandrite, depending on carat weight and strength of colour change, anywhere from a few hundred dollars to tens of thousands of dollars.
Genuine Alexandrite turns from a green/ blue colour in natural light to a purple/ red colour in incandescent light. There are other varieties of chrysoberyl that colour change as well as sapphire, garnet and fluorite.
Synthetic Alexandrite - usually a big, flawless pink to purple/blue colour change gem has been around for nearly 100 years

I have seen it green and purple in natural light,I've never looked at it under incandescent light. I don't know the carat weight, but looks to be about a carat.
