Since it's first unearthing, Tanzanite's pallet of exceptional beauty and radiating nuances ranging from brilliant violets to the most intense electric blues, has taken the world of gems and jewelry by storm.
After it's discovery in 1967, news of the gemstone with a color that put even the best peacock blue Kashmir sapphire to shame, came to the ears of the president of Tiffany's, Henry Platt. Seduced by its color and brilliance, America's number one jeweler wasted no time, immediately marketing the gemstone as Tanzanite after it's only known occurrence in the world, the African country of Tanzania.
To this day, the 4 km square mining area in the Merelani Hills of Tanzania is Tanzanite's only known source on the face of the planet. Therefore, with a little over 10 years of supply life left, with the mines nearing depletion, America's top selling colored gemstone's scarcity is assured. One thousand times rarer than diamond, and a third of the price of sapphire, Tanzanite is the world's ultimate collection/investment gemstone.
