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 our planet 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. We see a fantastically beautiful tanzanite, sparkling in a soft lilac hue, as the centerpiece of an entourage of eight white diamonds. Like petals, the brilliant-cut diamonds surround the colored center stone, which is round-faceted and weighs around 0.75 ct with a diameter of 6.0 mm. The stones are set in white gold, while the strong ring band is made of yellow gold. Stylistically, the ring dates from around 1980 - so it was created just a few years after the discovery of this enchanting gemstone. It came to us from the Rhineland.
