White Gold Alexandrite Ring Appraisal

Alexandrite and Diamond White Gold Ring

This item is a modern fashion ring crafted from white gold, featuring a central faceted alexandrite gemstone and accent diamonds. The design of the ring band is a split shank, with one arm of the split shank flowing smoothly around the alexandrite and the other arm pavé-set with small, round brilliant-cut diamonds. The alexandrite is pear-shaped and exhibits a color that appears to be a muted purplish-blue or grayish-blue in the visible lighting, consistent with alexandrite's known color-change phenomenon, even though its true color in different lighting conditions cannot be fully assessed from this single image. The gemstone is secured by a three-prong setting, with a visible V-prong on the pointed end of the pear, suggesting a secure mount. The white gold appears polished and in good condition with no significant visible scratches or tarnishing. The diamonds are small and uniformly set, contributing sparkle to the piece. There are no visible chips or significant abrasions on the alexandrite, and the overall construction appears sturdy and well-finished. The style suggests a contemporary design, likely from the late 20th or 21st century. While no specific maker's marks are discernible from the image, the craftsmanship appears to be of standard commercial quality for mass-produced or semi-custom jewelry. The ring is presumably designed for everyday wear or as a statement piece. It shows no signs of significant wear or damage, indicating it has been well-maintained or is relatively new.
