Description

Gemstone: Tanzanite - 8.57 Cts.
Tanzania

This captivating pear-shaped Tanzanite, weighing a respectable 8.57 carats, features modified brilliant faceting, offering good brilliance, excellent scintillation, and an eye-clean appearance. The gem's bodycolor is predominantly blue, but due to the stone's pleochroic nature, flashes of purple and subtle green emerge with movement and light. Sourced from Tanzania-the only known source of this rare variety-Tanzanite is prized for its unique color shifts and limited geographic origin, making it a favorite among collectors and designers alike. In excellent condition, this gem is ideal for fine jewelry, combining vibrant color with an elegant cut, versatility, and durability.
Measurements: 13.63 x 10.78 x 8.32 mm, 8.57 cts.
