QUANTITY

Tanzanite beads , named for the country of its origin, is the transparent dark blue to blue-violet gem variety of the mineral zoisite. Because it is only found on one place on earth, it’s considered rarer than diamonds. Tanzanite is known for its strong pleochroism: Depending on the direction of the light, its color changes from amethyst to violet-blue to brown. Most tanzanite is heat-treated so that only the rich blue color--which comes from trace amounts of vanadium—remains. The finest tanzanite is mostly blue with violet accents. Officially “discovered” in 1967, tanzanite is considered one of the newest gemstones, yet because its source is so limited—a narrow piece of land near Kilimanjaro--some geologists estimate that the world’s supply of tanzanite could be depleted within 15 years.
