Alexandrite Jewelry by Variance Objects

Alexandrite Jewelry

Alexandrite is valued for color that can change with the light. We orient every stone so its shifting green, plum and violet tones remain alive in the finished jewelry.

About Alexandrite

Alexandrite rewards close looking. Its color can move between cooler and warmer tones as the light changes, and the effect differs from one piece of rough to another. We cut with that movement in mind instead of pursuing a uniform outline.

The result is jewelry that continues to reveal itself while it is worn. Natural inclusions, asymmetry and changes in saturation become part of the composition, held by hand-fabricated metals that are made for the particular stone.

Sourced with Intention

Ethical Gemstones

We use Kimberly Process certified diamonds and traceable colored gems from trusted, family-run sources.

Recycled Precious Metals

Most of our precious metals are recycled, but not all. Our unique handmade process lends itself to less waste and less toxicity.

Respect for the Rough

All our colored gemstones are cut from rough stones. We highlight the rough beauty of each stone with a focus on color variation, rough formation and natural textures.
