You might not have heard of Tanzanite before, but don’t feel bad. Tanzanite is one of the world’s newest gems, having been discovered in 1967!
Tanzanite might be new, but it’s certainly beautiful!
Tanzanite comes in shades ranging from blue to purple, including the beautiful blue-violet shade I use in my jewelry!
There are dozens of reasons to love Tanzanite women’s jewelry. One of my favorites is that these gems shift colors slightly in different lights and from different angles.
That means you aren’t getting just one color; you’re, you’re getting several different shades in every gem!
My mission is to create handmade jewelry celebrating the shapes and colors found in the natural world using materials and practices that are eco-friendly, sustainable and ethical while giving back to protect our planet.
And, always using hypoallergenic, skin-safe materials so everyone can wear these miniature works of natural art regardless of allergies.
Tanzanite is a stone that actually always has two colors, which show up more or less depending on the light and how the stone is cut. This stone is always both blue and violet, though the stones that get made into jewelry are usually more one or the other.
However, you might notice when you’re looking at my handmade Tanzanite jewelry that I use the mixed blue-violet and periwinkle hues as well as the purer blues and violets.
Don’t be surprised if your Tanzanite jewelry looks a little different in different lights or at different angles. This stone naturally changes color slightly depending on what light it’s in, which makes it even more striking in jewelry.
Tanzanite is a great stone for handmade jewelry thanks to its unique colors and beautiful presentation. This stone is moderately hard, which does mean that it’s best for gentle wear and use, but it’s beautiful no matter what.
All of the Sterling Silver I use is sourced from reliable providers who never use nickel in their products. Like using only natural stones in my handmade jewelry, maintaining the quality of the metals I use is important to me.
All of my jewelry is hypoallergenic and nickel free.

Like a lot of the stones that have been discovered more recently, Tanzanite does have some special meanings, but not as many as stones that have been used in jewelry longer than Tanzanite.
In modern use, people associate Tanzanite with calmness, intuition, and youthfulness.
