tanzanite

Tanzanite is a type of mineral called zoisite, and is a bright and beautiful blue gemstone.

Tanzanite's blue color comes from the presence of trace amounts of the element vanadium within the crystal. Generally, it is characterized by a deep blue color, sometimes with purple and violet nuances.

Tanzanite is highly prized in the gemstone market for its bright blue color and high transparency. This beautiful shade is commonly cut to look the most attractive when working with gemstones.

Tanzanite is also considered to be a very rare gemstone and is mainly produced in Tanzania. Due to its rarity and attractive appearance, tanzanite is highly sought after and is often used in the design of jewelry and accessories.
