Faceted tanzanite 33.5 ct

Tanzanite has become one of the most popular gems in the market place. In fact, it is now the most popular gemstone after the “big four,”” which consists of diamonds, rubies, sapphiresand emeralds. At first, the gemstone was only available in smaller sizes, but now much bigger sizes are sold. Today, tanzanite can cost over $2000 per carat in larger sizes at retail stores. Tanzanite is far less expensive than sapphire, for which it often serves as a substitute.”
Tanzanite is often round , pear or oval cut. It is a stone that normally has few inclusions, but as in all gem stone families, large, clear, nearly flawless tanzanites are rare. The larger the stone, the greater the chance of flaws occurring.
