it is green or bluish-green in brilliant daylight, an alexandrite gemstone can turn a soft shade of red, purple-red or raspberry red at night in incandescent light.

The best alexandrites exhibit a grass green color in daylight that turns to a raspberry red in yellow colored light. It is therefore, called a gem that is 'emeraldby day and ruby by night'.
