The breathtaking violet-blue tanzanites are a gem to cherish for life. The fact they are found only in one place makes tanzanites quite rare & unique. Their rarity and rich blue hues are what enchant people the most. This is also the reason why Tanzanite jewelry has become so popular among people of all ages.

Moreover, when it comes to designing the most important jewelry of life, a wedding ring or an engagement ring, tanzanite rings steal the show. If you are also curious to know more about this enticing gemstone and wish to get one augmented as your engagement ring’s centerstone then this blog is for you.

Tanzanite Mineral Composition & Brief History

Tanzanite is primarily made up of the blue variety of the mineral zoisite containing small proportions of vanadium. It is found only in a limited mining space near the Merelani Hills of the Simanjiro District in Tanzania. This makes tanzanite over a thousand times rarer than flawless diamonds. Consequently tanzanite jewelry has its own unique charm.

Tanzanite gets its name after its country of origin where it was first discovered in 1967. This makes the stone relatively newer as compared to other gemstones. Afterwards, Tiffany & Co. launched the stone in 1968 in the commercial marketplace and named it “tanzanite”. 

Tanzanite’s Royal Hues Anyone Would Fall For

Rough tanzanite stones appear reddish brown in color in their original form. However, the natural heating process inside the earth’s crust or any artificial heat treatment removes this red layer, revealing the blue-violet hues of the gemstone. 

The quality of any substance to reflect different shades of color when seen from different angles is called pleochroism. And this is what gives tanzanite its charismatic ability to appear violet, blue and burgundy. Wouldn’t you find tanzanite jewelry appealing then? The stone gives off an exceptionally vibrant blue sheen when observed under fluorescent light. Whereas its violet tones comes to forefront when it is placed under incandescent light.

Determining the Value of Tanzanite Gemstone

The price of the tanzanite gemstone depends on its color, saturation, clarity, and carat size. In general, stones with bright blue-violet saturation command the highest price in the market. The untreated stones reflect myriads of hues, from blue to yellow, red, orange, etc. But the treated ones only have the blue family shades on display. While heat treatment reduces the worth of other gemstones, it does not affect the price of tanzanite since it is necessary to bring out the true colors of the stones. Hence, the treated ones are considered equally valuable. Generally, the stones with less carat weight have low saturation. So, if you wish to enjoy the royal blue, better go for a 5ct+ stone.

In terms of clarity, most stones are eye clean i.e. devoid of any inclusions visible to the naked eye. So, stones where inclusions are visible under magnification have higher price than those with eye-visible inclusions. Besides, cut also drives the value of a gemstone. Oval and cushion-cut are the most sought-after, though a wide range of shapes are available in the market.

Significance of Mighty Tanzanites 

The desire for custom jewelry is gaining momentum with increasing innovation in designs. The changing customer preference is also the reason why jewelry designers are taking the initiative to design out-of-the-box jewelry. Not to mention, tanzanite is the new trend in the market for getting some exquisite jewelry. So, if you are into colored gemstones and blues are still missing from your jewelry case, then a tanzanite necklace, ring, bracelet, or a pair of earrings, would make you look and feel bright.

Tanzanite score between 6 & 7 on the Mohs Scale and their rarity makes them as priceless as your love. Its vibrant blues would instill serenity and calmness in the heart and the mind of its wearer. At the same time their vivid violets would bless them with loads of wisdom and spiritual energy. But since it doesn’t fall into the spectrum of high score, it’s better to exercise some caution. For instance store tanzanite jewelry separately to avoid scratching.

Gift Ideas for Tantalizing Tanzanites 

The December borns & Sagittarius are indeed lucky to have this extraordinary gemstone their birthstone. It perfectly complements their exceptionally charming behavior and personality. Here are some Tanzanite jewelry gift ideas you would love to hear.

If your partner is a December born or Sagittarius, then a customized tanzanite ring would be the perfect jewelry to mark 24 years of togetherness. A tanzanite bracelet could be the most prideful gift your father could ever receive on his retirement. Your doting little sister’s happiness would know no bounds with your priceless tanzanite earrings at her graduation ceremony. And surely your mother would love tanzanite necklace curling around her neck on her birthday or Mother’s Day.

How to Create Your Own Custom Tanzanite Jewelry?

Wearing custom jewelry is always a pleasure since it is exclusively made for you, enhancing your style. But before moving ahead with custom jewelry you should know a few things:

Setting up Budget 

Keep aside the finances you are willing to invest in your custom jewelry. Since high-quality tanzanites would cost more, you must be ready to spend a few extra bills on them.

Collecting Loose Tanzanite Gemstones

Keep in mind the kind of jewelry you want. A bracelet typically requires more gemstones than a ring or a pendant. On the other hand, a pair of earrings will require matched pair unless you want to go with anything. Accordingly, you can look for the gemstones for your custom tanzanite jewelry. Also, keep in mind the 4Cs for the best quality tanzanite gemstones. And do remember the shape you’ll need. Different types of cuts are suitable for different types of jewelry.

Designing Your Custom Jewelry Piece 

The next step would be to develop the virtual design of your jewelry piece. It’s better to take the help of a professional jewelry designer if you are not good at art. But if you are, then create a rough sketch of your design and share it with an expert. In the end review the digital rendering of your design in 3D.

Looking for a Prospective Jeweler

Now the next step is to find a reputed jeweler that can put together everything just the way you want. Do some research and shortlist some to speak to. Either meet in person or set up a virtual appointment to talk about your design. You can then finalize the right kind of metal and finer design elements for your tanzanite jewelry. Be candid in your discussion and don’t shy away from asking questions.

Revising Your Design & Getting It Made

The last step would be to get your design revised, if required, as per the suggestion of your jeweler. Otherwise, you could straight away negotiate the manufacturing price with your jeweler and wait patiently for them to mold your design into your dream jewelry piece.

Parting Thoughts

The blue-hued tanzanite, with its violet and purplish undertones, will continue to rule hearts forever with its distinct magnetic vibes. Its vivid shades would crave you to demand one from your beloved or get one specially customized for your sweetheart. GemsNY is your one-stop solution from gemstones to custom jewelry.
