Tanzanite is an extraordinary gemstone. It occurs in only one place worldwide. It is named after the East African state of Tanzania, the only place in the world where it has been found.
Its blue, surrounded by a fine hint of purple, is a wonderful colour. Thanks to its unusual aura and the help of the New York jeweller's Tiffany, it has rapidly become one of the most coveted gemstones in the world.
It personifies immaculate, yet unconventional elegance. A person who acquires one of these exclusive gems is someone who wishes to set himself apart from the hoi polloi. A person who wears it exudes confidence and individuality.
Almost any price you care to name is being asked - and paid! - for tanzanites of good quality and large size. The idea of possessing something that not everyone has has always been one of the main criteria in the way we esteem special gems.
