Tanzanite by Forum Jewellers
Found in just one location on Earth, Tanzanite is one of the world's most exclusive gemstones, prized for its rarity, beauty and timeless appeal.
Overview
Forum Jewellers is delighted to offer one of the world's most captivating and sought-after gemstones – Tanzanite. Renowned for its extraordinary colour and rarity, Tanzanite displays a mesmerising blend of rich blue and violet tones that is unlike any other gemstone.
Discovered in 1967, Tanzanite is found in just one location on Earth – a small mining area in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro in northern Tanzania. This exclusive origin makes Tanzanite exceptionally rare, with experts estimating it to be significantly rarer than diamonds. Its limited supply and remarkable beauty have made it one of the most desirable gemstones in the world.
In 2002, Tanzanite was officially added to the list of December birthstones by the American Gem Trade Association, making it a meaningful and distinctive gift for anyone celebrating a December birthday. Its rarity and unique provenance also make Tanzanite jewellery a wonderful heirloom, destined to be treasured and passed down through generations.
Often referred to as one of the most exciting gemstones of modern times, Tanzanite's single-source origin means supplies are finite, adding to its appeal among gemstone collectors and jewellery lovers alike.
Whether you are searching for a special December birthstone gift, a memorable Christmas present, or a truly unique piece of fine jewellery, Forum Jewellers offers a beautiful selection of Tanzanite rings, earrings and pendants. Browse our collection online or visit our showroom to discover the exceptional colour and beauty of this remarkable gemstone for yourself.
