My New Alexandrite Ring

[3Guapas]

Hello All. This is my new Alexandrite (natural) ring. The stone is a .53 ct Brazilian. The setting is called a cloud setting. The color change goes from this teal / green color to a purple/ red color. I am thrilled with this ring. But I will admit, I have never had a stone this small so it was a bit shocking when I saw it after it was made.

My alex is small, too. Just the nature of that stone. Yours is gorgeous!

I love it, @3Guapas! That's a creative way to set it, too -- and I may steal it. (The design; not the ring!) Mine is too small to bezel-set (which is my preferred way) and all the prong settings look too delicate -- but to "float" a pronged mounting above a wider band, cloud-style, is a great compromise and a great look!

Do you have a side view or a view looking "down" the finger...?

Thank you @LilAlex I do love the ring. Here are some more images. please post your ring when you are done setting it.

Wow your ring is gorgeous! Love the bold gold design it really brings out the beauty of your stone! I've always been into alexandrites and I believe that half a carat is a pretty good size since it's such a rare gem

I wanted to enhance the ring so I had a custom diamond band made to stack.
