ALEXANDRITE ROUGH colour change
TANZANIA-MANGHOLA DUMAWANGA DISTRICT ARUSHA REGION
NICE GREEN CHANGES TO PURPLE/RED
IDEAL FOR CABBING
TREATMENT-NONE
This rare gemstone is named after the Russian tsar Alexander II (1818-1881), the very first crystals having been discovered in April 1834 in the emerald mines near the River in the Urals. The discovery was made on the day the future tsar came of age. Although alexandrite is a relatively young gemstone, it certainly has a noble history. Since it shows both red and green, the principal colours of old Imperial Russia, it inevitably became the national stone of tsarist Russia.
Alexandrite is very scarce: this is due to its chemical composition. It is basically a chrysoberyl, a mineral consisting of colourless or yellow transparent chrysoberyl, chrysoberyl cat’s eye and colour-changing alexandrite (also in cat’s eye varieties). It differs from other chrysoberyls in that it not only contains iron and titanium, but also chromium as a major impurity. And it is this very element which accounts for the spectacular colour change. Rarely, vanadium may also play a part. According to CIBJO nomenclature, only chrysoberyls displaying a distinct change of colour may be termed alexandrite.

Waarom overbieden gebruikers zichzelf?
Wanneer een bod wordt geplaatst, is dit het maximale bedrag dat een persoon bereid is te bieden voor het product. Ons systeem zal dan automatisch bieden namens de bieder, waarbij het bod stapsgewijs wordt verhoogd tot het maximum om hun positie als hoogste bieder te behouden.
Wanneer er een pictogram is dat 'Automatisch bod' aangeeft, betekent dit dat ons systeem actief biedingen plaatst voor de bieder op basis van hun maximale bod. Dit kan lijken alsof bieders zichzelf overbieden, maar het is gewoon een resultaat van het systeem dat het bod bijwerkt om de maximale limiet van de bieder weer te geven.
