1.14ct Tanzanite 5-Stone Graduated Ring 9ct Gold

Tanzanite is the blue-to-violet-to-purple variety of the mineral Zoisite. It is mined commercially only in one area of the world: the Merelani Hills of Tanzania, which is where it gets its name.

Tanzanites appearance is influenced greatly by its pleochroism, which is the ability of a gemstone to show different colours when viewed in different crystal directions. Tanzanite can be violetish blue, similar to a sapphire colour, or much more purplish. Often, both colours are readily visible in a fashioned stone when it is gently rocked and tilted.

Discovered in 1967, Tanzanite is relatively new to the coloured stone galaxy and it has been proclaimed the most important gemstone discovery in over 2000 years.
