Custom-designed tanzanite pendant by Roman Jewelers of Flemington and Bridgewater, NJ
Would you like to own an heirloom gemstone? If so, Tanzanite may be the perfect choice.
Tanzanite can be purchased today, but it is estimated that it will only be mined for another 10 to 15 years. Beyond our generation, this extraordinary gemstone will only be available through inheritance or auctions—making it an ideal option for a custom-designed heirloom piece.
Tanzanite is found in only one place on Earth: the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. This rare gemstone is admired for its exquisite blend of purple, blue, and violet hues. Strong blue and blue-violet tones are often enhanced by flashes of red radiating from within the stone, making tanzanite truly irresistible.
Tanzanite gemstones range in color from deep royal blue to lighter shades of periwinkle. Although the stone was formed approximately 585 million years ago, it was not officially “discovered” until 1967.
Today, tanzanite appeals equally to gemstone collectors and to those seeking a custom-designed piece that is rare, unique, and deeply meaningful. Our custom jewelry designers at Roman Jewelers often refer to tanzanite as a dream stone.
Tanzanite pairs beautifully with platinum, white gold, and yellow gold, and its vibrant color complements all skin tones. You truly can’t go wrong with tanzanite—it is a beautiful, brilliant, and exceptionally rare gemstone.
If you already own a tanzanite and would like it set into a stunning, one-of-a-kind design, we would be delighted to create something special just for you. It is a piece you will cherish for years to come—and one you will be proud to pass on to the next generation.
