2.01 ct Round Faceted Purple Tanzanite Matching Set Of 2 Stones

*Please note all loose gemstones are sold on behalf of a third-party wholesaler and pricing is therefore linked to the US$. Regular price updates are performed in order to accommodate fluctuations in the exchange rate and may be carried out without prior notice. Dispatch on loose gemstones will take place 2 working days after purchase to allow for shipping from the supplier to my studio. I do regular inventory updates with them to ensure accuracy, but since these stones are also offered for sale to other jewellery designers, it may happen that a particular stone is no longer available at the time of purchase. In such a case you will receive the opportunity to change your order or a full refund.

These lovely natural Tanzanites equal 2.01 carat and are a beautiful rich blueish-purple. These stones are colour and size matched and sold as a set, perfect for earrings.

* A note on Matched Sets: Due to the fact that these stones were cut by hand, the angle at which they lie flat on the surface during photography is not always the same, which may cause them to reflect the light differently and therefore not look like they were matched. If you are unsure, you are more than welcome to get in touch for additional photographs or videos of the stones, or perhaps to book a viewing in person.

Tanzanite is one of the December birthstones.

Tanzanite is usually heat treated to improve the blue and/or purple tones. Green, brown, yellow and peacock Tanzanite usually do not respond well to the treatment and is very rare.

Tanzanite is not recommended in rings for everyday wear, but it is possible in a protective setting and if care is taken.

Please note: We take great care to ensure that the photographs are an accurate representation of the actual stone, but due to differences in screen quality and resolution, and the fact that the colour of a gemstone is dependent on the type of light it is viewed in, some variation is possible.
