Alexandrite Rough and Cut
Tokovaya, Ural Mountains, Russia
From the most sought-after region for this coveted color-change mineral—the Urals—this is an excellent pairing of a faceted heart-shaped alexandrite, weighing approximately 5.61 carats and measuring 12.2 x 8.7 x 6.7mm; together with an alexandrite crystal from the same locality with a naturally etched image—a "natural cameo" one could say depicting a woman with a head scarf, 2.7 x 2.3 x 1.8 mm.
