Deep blue, azure skies with a hint of indigo, that’s what these magnificent Tanzanite gemstones remind us of. They are extremely rare and found in the only place on earth – in the Merelani mines of Tanzania in Africa.
In 1967, a Masai warrior stumbled over a stone in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro and created history. He had discovered the stone which the New York Jewellery Company Tiffany, would introduce to the world a year later as Tanzanite. Described as “the loveliest blue gemstone discovered in over 2,000 years” it took the world by storm and has been mesmerizing its fans for half a century.
This brilliant deep blue gemstone is as wild and beautiful as the African continent. The hint of indigo in its depths speaks a thousand tales of midnight promises. Set in an uncluttered prong sterling silver, the gemstones beauty is unfettered and has the beauty and dependability of all Raw Carat creations that never goes out of season. It is Rhodium plated to ensure anti-tarnishing and hypo-allergenic properties.
So, whether you decide to pull on a pair of denim and slip on a Tanzanite earring to chase away those blues or head to your favourite lounge in a shimmering evening gown, it feels equally at home.
Every piece of our jewellery is hand-crafted in sterling silver and created with immense pride and painstaking care to ensure years of unbridled joy for you!
