I work in a company that deals in selling tanzanite jewelery and tanzanite stones if you're intrested 💬

Where did you get it from…?

Hi Bob! Thanks for the comment, I'm glad to hear you like our grading system. We do cut some natural trichroic gems, but they usually sell pretty quickly if they are beautiful. If they are just mediocre in the natural state, we will generally heat them. Keep an eye out here or during our live gem show streams, we'll usually release them there first. Otherwise, you can see our collection of unheated tanzanites here: www.tanzanitejewelrydesigns.com/collections/unheated-tanzanite We do currently have some amazing natural and unheated tanzanites available with a deep blue violet color (that came naturally from the earth) and fancy color tanzanite.

I looked at the sold stones on your website - unbelievable! So beautiful! I know you cut most of those yourself (maybe all of them) - they’re spectacular in terms of proportions and the number of facets. You are apparently a perfectionist. 😉 Okay, I’m going to have to save up for a number of months, but I’ll keep an eye on your page (and your KZfaq vids). God bless!

Virtually all tanzanite is heated. That’s what brings out the blue and purple color. Unheated tanzanite is brown or green. Naturally blue tanzanite has to have been exposed to a natural heat source within the earth. So even then, it’s still “heated.” Just naturally. And then, it’s virtually impossible to tell the difference between naturally heated, versus man-heated. There is no machine or lab that can tell difference. I would enjoy your tanzanite, and feel privileged that you own this beautiful gem

@@AmandaBella100 Yes, I'm quite grateful for the Tanzanite pieces I own. Actually, there are quite an array of fancy coloured Tanzanite that are not only brown nor green. These are the ones I have my eye on. There is a beautiful yellow colour, pure purple and one that many refer to as 'diesel'. It's usually this latter one that ends up being heated to look exactly like the rest. I'm one who likes something different. Could you imagine Diamonds if they only came as a white/clear colour? What a loss that would be to never experience the brilliance of the fancy colours. I simply feel the same with Tanzanite. I wear four rings, one on each finger of my left hand permanently. The one that receives the most interest is the most simplistic design I wear. That's because it contains two varieties of green Garnet, something that non-gem lovers aren't aware of. I love the fact that I have several pieces containing green gold, something that the Jeweller in my town had never seen in person before. As much as I love Diamonds, it's coloured gems that steal my heart, but I like the unusual which explains my love of the fancy coloured Tanzanite. Unfortunately, with the cost of living crisis, my jewellery intake has been much diminished and my longing for a Fancy Tanzanite will just have to wait. If you look on the website for this Jewellery Store who own this YT Channel, they may have some fancy coloured Tanzanite showing. They have shown some spectacular colours in their videos too and certainly know what they are speaking on when talking about this stunning gem. Their website shows a whole variety of gems and well worth taking a peek.💖

seems mostly graded by color, clarity, cut then weight..

They would need to be gem quality material (very transparent with few inclusions) then you would either need to learn how to facet or find a lapidary who takes on outside cutting work.

Hi! Sorry, but we do not offer rough. This information is regarding faceted tanzanite.

check out this video. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ntx7ptdllq-oo2w.html

At this time the size is too small to be considered to be an investment.

There are no synthetic tanzanites available on the market, only imitation.

​@@MoregemsCorrect, they have not replicated the recrystallization process for Tanzanite to this date.

Sometimes particularly in its unheated state.

Also can have purple, pink, brown and yellow

Hey Jonathan, no, sorry we do not sell any tanzanite rough. We do sell the crystals, but most of them wouldn't be worth cutting and are better as specimens.

yeah good luck getting gem grade rough, but buying cutter direct is gonna be your best option for already cut stones... im averaging about $150-300 a ct for really good quality cut tanzanites from my source with great color..

@@LaSierraAcresQuailFarm Do you cut?

@@imjonkatz i only cut ethiopian opal, but at some point, i would like to learn to cut other gemstones.

@@LaSierraAcresQuailFarm Ah! I mainly cut Ethiopian opal, but I also cut other kinds of opals. I also facet all other kinds of materials. If you have any questions let me know.
