Platinum Alexandrite Jewelry by Carl Ansley

At Gemvara, we believe that the jewelry you wear should be as unique as you. Every beautiful Gemvara platinum alexandrite jewelry design will be made just for you. It's jewelry for all life's occasions, from an anniversary or holiday to your own personal milestones and celebrations. Gemvara uses only the highest quality materials to craft your platinum alexandrite jewelry with meticulous attention to detail. Our precious metals are recycled or responsibly mined. Alexandrite was discovered on Alexander II's 16th birthday and was thusly named after the future Czar. Pure, rare, and eternal, platinum is the world's most precious metal. One touch and you'll immediately notice the difference: platinum is significantly denser than gold. Its purity makes platinum an excellent choice for people with metal sensitivities. Platinum is naturally hypoallergenic. Our wide selection of platinum alexandrite jewelry by Judy Evans, Ruzanna Davtian, Danielle Meshorer, and other talented designers means you can find rings, earrings, and necklaces that are exactly your style. You can also shop by style, choosing our Family, Knot, or Lucky Charm Collections. When our work is done and you open that box, you'll see your design is even more beautiful when brought to life in the finest precious materials.

While designer Carl Ansley is inspired by the natural world, you'll see it most in the line and proportion of his modern pieces rather than in traditional motifs. Throughout his 22 year-career, which began at Tiffany & Co., Carl has developed a deep appreciation for the artistic process behind creating gorgeous, eye-catching jewelry. Form follows function but doesn't overwhelm it. For example, because rings can twist on the finger, he creates a natural curve high on a ring's shoulders so it will rest comfortably on the finger next to it. He takes great care to create jewelry that makes a bold statement in order to express a woman's own style and personality. Carl says the greatest accomplishment of his long career is designing and crafting his wife's diamond engagement ring and wedding band. It's just what you'd expect from a designer who thinks first of the woman who will wear his jewelry.

Known as the gem of good omens, it is said to strengthen the wearer's intuition, helping solve problems that seemed once unconquerable. When buying alexandrite, the most important element to consider is color, or more specifically, change in color. Gemvara's alexandrite stones will show a rich change from blue-green to purplish-red when brought from sunlight to artificial light. Cut and clarity also factor into value. The larger the carat weight, the more the alexandrite will cost per carat. Gemvara only sells premium, hand-selected alexandrite stones. It possesses a hardness of 8.5, and the more distinct the color change, the more valuable the stone. Alexandrite is the June birthstone and the 55th anniversary gem. All Gemvara jewelry is made to order, which ensures that a premium-quality alexandrite stone will be hand-selected to perfectly suit your design. Crafted in the United States, Gemvaras fine alexandrite jewelry is precious and personal, sure to be passed down for generations to come.
