Large Alexandrite specimen from the famous Russian deposit of Malysheva. This specimen shows a group of several smaller and one large Alexandrite crystal with a length of 12 mm. The crystals are green in daylight and change their color in weak artificial light, e.g. the light of a candle or a light bulb into a bright rose violet color. The mine in Malysheva has been exploited since years, just very few pieces get on the world market these days.
