The Tanzanite

Tanzanite is appreciated for its blue color with changing reflections. However, it also exists in shades of green, yellow, pink, orange ... Some, called fancy tanzanites, are multicolored. The majority of tanzanites used in jewelry have been heated to intensify their natural color and soften the brown nuances.

A little history...

The name of tanzanite was given to this gem according to the place where it was discovered: in Tanzania. The history of Tanzanite will always be linked to the Maasai people. Blue is, for the Maasai, a sacred color. Women used to receive pearls and blue clothes after giving birth to a child; today, the Masai chiefs offer them a tanzanite, at the birth of a baby, as a sign of blessing to wish him good health and a rich and beautiful life.

Provenance

Tanzanite is only mined in Tanzania. The mines are located on the Masai territory, which owns 95% of the trade in this stone.
