Rare Alexandrite and Tanzanite Jewelry in Heritage Estate Jewelry’s August Auction

Alexandrite gems are said to resemble emerald by day and ruby by night. This color-changing quality and limited quantity has aided the gem’s popularity across history. Named after Czar Alexander II, who emancipated Russia’s serfs, the stone became a favorite among royals after its discovery in Russia. In Heritage Estate Jewelry’s upcoming auction, a 13.62-carat natural and untreated alexandrite ring will be available. Round, brilliant-cut diamonds surround the oval-cut alexandrite. A GIA report accompanies this lot. A diamond pendant with a 1.96-carat brilliant-cut diamond from Tiffany & Co., a 3.30-carat fancy yellow diamond ring, and a two-row emerald and diamond necklace are on offer as well. 

Collectors of rare stones can find a selection of tanzanite necklaces, a ring, and earrings. A 23.16-carat tanzanite necklace with 18-karat white gold is particularly notable. Tanzanite gems have a distinct bright bluish-purple color. They can only be found in the Merelani Hills of Tanzania. Jewelry enthusiasts can find more than 850 available lots in this auction, as well as watches and fine art. Visit Bidsquare to view the catalog and place a bid.
