Details
An emerald-cut tanzanite lies low in a channel, its long step facets and deep blue-violet framed by two smooth walls of gold or platinum. The channel shelters the girdle and corners, the parts of a soft stone most at risk, and tanzanite is soft, 6 to 7 on the Mohs scale with an easy cleavage. This is a right hand ring, cool and architectural, not a bridal center. The stone is a genuine natural tanzanite, heated to reach its colour as the trade does, disclosed rather than hidden. Pick your metal and carat below and we finish it to your size.
Shown complete with a real Emerald natural tanzanite center from 0.69 to 1.7 carat, from $2,449 all-in. The price is the finished ring: the setting, the tanzanite center you choose, and the labor to set and size it. Tanzanite is blue-violet zoisite at 6 to 7 on the Mohs scale, soft and cleavable, so we build it into protective settings, hand select every stone, and recommend removing the ring for the gym, the garden and rough work. Virtually all tanzanite is heat treated from a brownish rough to reach its blue-violet, a standard and permanent step we disclose plainly rather than claim the stone is untreated. These calibrated stones ship without an individual lab report. Want a certified or larger center? Contact our concierge and we will source and quote it honestly.

Questions
What is at the center? A real natural Emerald tanzanite, from 0.69 to 1.7 carat, its colour shifting between blue and violet as you move it. Choose the carat and metal on this page.
Is this an engagement ring or a fashion ring? This is a fashion ring, made for the right hand, a stack or a self purchase rather than a proposal. Wear it however you like.
Is the tanzanite natural? Yes. Every center is a natural, earth mined tanzanite from Tanzania, the only place it is found. There is no lab grown tanzanite here; the trade does not make one, and we would rather set the real stone than a simulant.
Is it treated? Almost all tanzanite is gently heated from a brownish rough to reach its blue-violet. The treatment is standard, permanent and does not fade, and we say so rather than imply the stone is untouched.
Why does the ring use a protective setting? Tanzanite is soft, 6 to 7 on the Mohs scale, and it cleaves, so a sharp knock on an exposed edge can chip or split it. A bezel, halo, cluster or channel shelters the stone, which is why we favor those designs here, and why we suggest removing it for rough work.
Does it come with a certificate? These calibrated tanzanite ship without an individual lab report. We hand check every one for even blue-violet colour and a clean face, and can source a certified or larger stone on request.
