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.
