When gemologists brought the first blue gemstones from the steppe sands of Tanzania to New York in 1967, the company Tiffany & Co. secured the rights to this mineral, which is a thousand times rarer on the earth's surface than diamonds. Due to its rarity and beauty, it is not surprising that this gemstone from the savannahs of Tanzania soon became one of the most sought-after minerals in the jewelry industry. A stunningly beautiful tanzanite weighing around 2.81 carats, which sparkles in a rich blue-violet, like hyacinths, is the centerpiece of this vintage pendant. The gemstone has been cut into a drop that defines the shape of the design. An entourage of thirteen white diamonds with a total weight of around 1.70 carats frames the colored center stone. The pendant is made from high-carat white gold and, with its filigree bars, dates stylistically to around 1980 - meaning it was created just over a decade after the discovery of the only known tanzanite mine in the world to date. We have added a matching platinum chain to the well-preserved pendant so that it can be worn immediately around the neck. An independent appraisal from Vienna accompanies the piece of jewelry and has once again described its materials in detail.
