Natural tanzanite, discovered in Tanzania in the 1960s, is a variety of zoisite known for its striking blue and violet colors. With a hardness of 6 to 7 on the Mohs scale, it offers moderate durability, making it suitable for various jewelry applications. Tanzanite’s unique trichroism allows it to exhibit different colors when viewed from different angles, adding to its allure. As one of the most sought-after gemstones, understanding its characteristics, sourcing, and market trends is crucial for anyone involved in its trade or collection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
