What Makes This Specimen Relevant
Tanzanite is the blue variety of zoisite, and Tanzania is its only known source, which is why a deep blue tanzanite crystal with a clear termination draws collectors who want the gem before it’s cut. At 61 mm, the crystal is long and slim, so the blue runs the length of it. For the full story of the stone, read what tanzanite is. If you’d like a heavier piece, see our 106 gram tanzanite crystal, and the rest of the range is in the Tanzanite Crystals collection, part of our Minerals & Crystals range.
Buying Considerations
Because the crystal has been repaired, keep it away from heat and solvents, avoid ultrasonic cleaners, and store it on its own so the termination isn’t knocked. If you’d rather have a cut stone for jewelry, browse our Tanzanite Gems. You can watch the video of this crystal before deciding. Ships express.
