Tanzanite, Rare gem from Tanzania. Beautiful rich sapphire blue color! Its brilliant color and its exclusive origin in Tanzania combine to make Tanzanite a unique and highly sought after gemstone.

The name Tanzanite was coined by Tiffany who had first and exclusive rights to the pretty blue violet mineral for many years.

The deep blue of the tanzanite is fantastic, and runs from ultramarine blue to light violet-blue. The most coveted color is a blue surrounded by a delicate hint of purple, which has a particularly wonderful effect Tanzanite is an extraordinary gemstone. It occurs in only one place worldwide. Its blue, surrounded by a fine hint of purple, is a wonderful color. Thanks to its unusual aura and the help of the New York jeweler’s Tiffany, it has rapidly become one of the most coveted gemstones in the world.

Tanzanite is named after the East African state of Tanzania.
