Tanzanite is a stunning gemstone that has quickly become one of the most sought-after gemstones in the world. This beautiful gem is a violet-blue variety of the mineral zoisite, which is unique to only one place in the world: the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. Tanzanite exhibits a wonderful combination of blues, purples and violets, and has an attractive trichroic quality, meaning it appears to be a different color when viewed from different angles. Tanzanite is known for its intense sparkle and brilliance, making it an excellent choice for jewelry.
