TANZANITE JEWELLERY
The extremely rare and beautiful Tanzanite is only found in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro. According to legend, the first Tanzanite aficionados were nomadic Maasai herdsmen. Apparently, they spotted beautiful blue Tanzanite crystals which had been transformed from their typical bronze greyish brown by a grass fire. This story alludes to how Tanzanite’s colours actually blossom with heat. Manuel D’Souza staked the first official claim, legendary Scottish geologist Campbell Bridges was the first person to bring Tanzanite to the GIA (Gemological Institute of America) for identification, and Tiffany & Co. coined and launched the brand name ‘Tanzanite’. From a mineralogical standpoint, Tanzanite begins as clear Zoisite. Its wonderful and intense colours depend on the foreign mineral elements of chrome and vanadium present in the crystals. Tanzanite is a trichroic gemstone, which means each Tanzanite crystal has three colours: blue, purplish-red, and greenish-yellow-brown. The intensity of the colour changes when it is viewed from different angles. While heating minimizes Tanzanite’s bronze hues and maximizes the blues, violets, and purples, the quality is dependent on the natural characteristics of each crystal. Rocks & Co.
