Cushion Cut Alexandrite Gemstone

Engagement ring question?

I looked at engagement rings, and would like some advice. Gemstone My friend's favorite is Alexandra, a purple gem that changes in different light colors (pink, green and purple). As I know has no alexandrite jewelry already, so I'm wondering if when I proposed to her, where an alexandrite ring would be better than a diamond. Both of us are against diamond mining, but what do you guys think? Maybe alexandrite as a birthday gift or some such, and I should use something similar to sapphire engagement ring? What is your opinion?

Alexandria is a beautiful stone that is not a diamond ring that is much more personal. It would be wise to go for a "traditional" cut engagement ring though, such as round, princess, emerald cut or a reduction Asscher if you can find or jeweler can do. It will look very special indeed. Congratulations!
