JEWELLERY DESIGNER KAT FLORENCE COLLABORATES WITH GEM HUNTER DON KOGEN TO REVEAL WORLD'S MOST SIGNIFICANT ALEXANDRITE COLLECTION TO DATE

Kat Florence anxiously awaits her legendary Alexandrite collection release, feeling honored she said to be in a position to work with such rare and regal stones

 

New York, March 2020 - Jewellery designer Kat Florence, renowned for creating one of a kind pieces for celebrities around the globe and working with the rarest gemstones discovered, will finally be releasing her collection of fine Alexandrite gemstones in the coming weeks.

The gemstone Alexandrite is known as one of the rarest gemstones in the world since its discovery in 1834. Found in the Russian Ural Mountains, this stone was named after Tsar Alexander II.  Alexandrite became the symbol of the Russian monarchs as it represents the former Tsars by name as well as by the colors red and green.

Don Kogen known for spectacular gemstone discoveries all over the world, who also produces documentaries for the Discovery Network explains what makes this Kat Florence collection so significant: “It is the incredibly clarity of each stone and their deep colors. Each stone in this collection is a perfectly clean Alexandrite from one of the discovery sites in Russia, Brazil, India or East Africa. Kogen who has made a name for himself as the extreme Gem Hunter, points out that the Alexandrite collection from Kat Florence will probably remain quite unique for a long time to come, as all origin locations have been completely exhausted. There are no current prospecting sites for Alexandrite in the world, making this Kat Florence collection a historical collection for collectors and connoisseurs.

Kat Florence anxiously awaits her legendary Alexandrite collection release, feeling honored she said to be in a position to work with such rare and regal stones. Each of her pieces will hold the legacy of the name and frame a moment in time, becoming modern day heirlooms for the family lucky enough to acquire one.
