Buying guide
Tanzanite is a blue to violet variety of the mineral zoisite, found in commercial quantity in only one small area of Tanzania. Its color can shift between blue and purple depending on the angle and the light, which a round cut shows well. It is one of the December birthstones. Tanzanite rates about 6 to 7 on the Mohs scale, so it is better suited to earrings than to rings that take daily knocks. Clean it with warm, soapy water and a soft brush, never in an ultrasonic cleaner.
Every pair comes in white, yellow or rose gold (10K, 14K or 18K), platinum, or silver. White metals give a cool frame; yellow and rose gold warm the color of the stone. Sizes run from 0.5 to 10 carats total weight for the pair, so you can pick a small, quiet stud or a large one that is easy to see across a room.
A basket setting holds the stone in prongs joined by a thin rail of metal below it, so the stone sits securely and close to the ear while light still reaches it from the sides. It is a clean, classic stud that pairs well with other earrings and works for everyday wear. Prices start under $200 in silver, and most gold and platinum pairs are about $400 at the smallest size.
