Buying guide
Tanzanite is a blue-violet gem found in only one region of Tanzania, and it is a birthstone for December. It can look bluer or more violet depending on the angle and the light. Tanzanite rates about 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale, softer than sapphire, so earrings are a good fit: they take far fewer bumps than a ring. Clean the studs with warm, soapy water and a soft brush rather than an ultrasonic cleaner.
An emerald cut is a rectangle with cut corners and rows of flat, stepped facets. The steps open a clear view into the stone, so you see deep, even color instead of scattered sparkle. That suits tanzanite, whose shifting blue and violet tones show best across broad facets.
Each pair is offered from 0.5 to 10 carats total weight. Gold comes in 10K, 14K or 18K. White gold, platinum and silver keep the blue cool and bright, while yellow and rose gold bring out the violet. Prices start under $200, and most pairs cost about $400.
Each piece is made for you in 10–15 days. Shipping is free on orders over $500, and returns are accepted within 30 days.
