GEM BLEU Tanzanite and Diamond Ring in 18K

Rare and valuable, tanzanite is also found in only one place on the planet: the Merelani Hills of Tanzania, in the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro. One of the world’s most beautiful blue gems, tanzanite is actually pleochroic, showing three different colors when viewed from different directions: purple, blue, and bronze. As you move, you’ll see the colors flash. Discovered in 1967 and named by Tiffany & Co in tribute to the beauty of Tanzania, tanzanite quickly became one of the world’s most popular gems. When you gaze into its mesmerizing depths, you’ll understand why. Tanzanite is a birthstone for December and the 24th anniversary gem.

In gold-loving Italy, 18K yellow gold is the most popular precious metal. That’s because it’s 75% pure gold, with the rich buttery color that we think of when we picture gold. That’s more gold than the 58.5% you’ll find in 14K gold jewelry. It’s more expensive than 14K gold too, of course, because it has more intrinsic value. Most high-end jewelry brands work in 18k gold because they feel it is more luxurious and the best gold alloy.
