The gemstones are changing the color from deep amethyst like purple under the sun light or daylight bulbs to blue sapphire color under yellowish candle light, or incandescent bulb. The gems are eye clear with some minuscule inclusions visible with magnifying glass.
The central gemstone is 14 mm across, which estimates to 11.35 carat. The smallest is 5 mm.
The bracelet is approximately 6 ½” long with hidden box push-in clasp and safety chain.
The tongue of the clasp has 3 stamps which appear to be Arabic letters. The gold tested 18K. Total weight is 38.4 grams.

Lab alexandrites are grown in painstaking process of making the gemstones created by Mother Nature. They are chemically, physically and visually identical to mined alexandrites, but have fewer flaws.
We think the bracelet was made in Egypt in 1940’s. Starting in 1916 until 1940/1941 the hallmarks were made in Latin and changed to Arabic afterwards.
