It is forecasted that the price on this stone will only go up. As of today, it has already entered the top five best selling minerals. The semi-precious stone, which is a thousand times rarer than a diamond, is called tanzanite. The fortune of this stone resembles, in a way, a story of Cinderella. It was found in a poor African country, Tanzania. However, for a very very long time no one had been interested in it. The original discovery of tanzanite belongs to the shepherds of one of the Maasai tribes who happened to find it at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro. One of the samples of over 10, carats by chance came into the hands of geologists who were ensuring supplies of rubies to Europe. At first, they thought the find was nothing but the ordinary glass. Later, it came clear that the stone of crimson colour was in fact a discovery of a brand new semi-precious stone. Jewel items with this stone were dominating the covers of fashion magazines, even outshining diamonds jewels. The stone itself played a role in this movie - a role of a diamond. Neither a diamond nor a blue sapphire had the right colour or lustre. It was only tanzanite that passed an acting audition. Originally, the stone had another name. Tanzanite is, as a matter of fact, a variety of a bleak stone of brown colour, named zoisite. Therefore, the stone was renamed - in the honour of the place where it was found, the United Republic of Tanzania. The mineral had become the best selling gem in the world by the end of the nineties. In the XXI century, it still maintains a leading position, but now a bit behind the sapphire. The Maasai people have a tradition of gifting a blue gem to the women after giving a birth to a child. As tanzanite is found only in a limited area extending to four kilometres, it is generally considered an extremely rare mineral. The chances of finding it in some other location are pretty slim, decaying to zero. Besides, tanzanite reserves will last for the next ten years at most. High professionalism is required to not to break the stone into pieces. The blueish specimens - among the others - of tanzanite are the most valuable. Purchasing a jewel item with tanzanite has become a reasonable and well-timed investment in the future. Tanzanite jewellery is nowadays a part of the family heritage, it is a family heirloom. To determine whether a stone is a fake or not, one should have a look at the mineral from different angles. If the stone is real, its colour should vary from dark-purple to bright-blue. This life-hack is very recommended to those who are planning to buy tanzanite items. Forpost Press. Об издании Подписка К началу Статьи.
