The story of tanzanite is as unique as the gemstone itself. Discovered relatively recently in 1967, tanzanite was found in the Merelani Hills near Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, which remains the only place in the world where it’s mined. The Maasai people, who live near the area, believe tanzanite is a “gift from the heavens,” as the discovery happened after a lightning storm that supposedly caused the hillsides to glow with the intense blue-violet color of the stone.

 

Tiffany & Co. recognized tanzanite’s potential and introduced it to the world, naming it after its place of origin to emphasize its rarity and exclusivity. Tanzanite’s remarkable color shift—appearing blue, violet, or burgundy depending on the light—adds to its allure and mystique. Some even say tanzanite is a thousand times rarer than diamonds due to its limited geographical source.

 

This gem’s story is one of natural beauty, cultural significance, and rarity, which makes it a perfect choice for celebrating one-of-a-kind moments and connections.
