Tanzanite is one of the rarest gemstones in the world – this necklace carries a piece of it close to your skin.

Mineralogical Properties

Tanzanite is an intensely blue-violet variety of the mineral Zoisite (Ca₂Al₃(SiO₄)₃(OH)) and belongs to the sorosilicate group. Its characteristic color – from radiant sapphire blue to warm blue-violet – is created by traces of vanadium in the crystal lattice. A special feature of tanzanite is its pronounced pleochroism: depending on the viewing angle, it shows different colors – blue, violet, and burgundy. Its Mohs hardness is 6 to 7. Tanzanite crystallizes in the orthorhombic system and exhibits a lively vitreous luster. Sometimes it also displays a cat's eye effect. It was discovered in Tanzania in 1967 and named after its only known locality – the Merelani Hills at the foot of Kilimanjaro. Tanzanite is thus one of the geographically rarest gemstones in the world and is exclusively mined in this one location.

Healing & Energetic Properties

In crystal healing, tanzanite is considered a stone of clarity, creativity, and inner strength. The following effects are attributed to it:

• promotes logical thinking, concentration, and mental clarity
• provides insights and helps to understand complex relationships
• strengthens healthy self-confidence and outward charisma
• is considered a source of creativity and inspiration

• physically covers the entire head area – according to literature, it supports with headaches, eye and ear problems, as well as complaints in the mouth and throat
• is considered a particularly suitable healing stone for all types of skin problems

In chakra teachings, tanzanite is associated with the Third Eye Chakra and the Crown Chakra – it opens you to higher states of consciousness, sharpens your mind, and connects you with your inner wisdom and creativity. The delicate 2 mm bead necklace makes it the perfect, everyday companion for anyone who appreciates preciousness in small things.

Care & Advice

Clean your necklace with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid contact with chemicals, perfume, and ultrasound, as well as strong temperature fluctuations, as tanzanite can be sensitive to heat.
