African Gold and Gems

Handicraft Items

Cape Town, South Africa

With the huge demand for Tanzanites, Diamonds and Gem Stones internationally, we now specialise in these rare and beautiful stones. The demand far exceeds supply. However, we are in the most fortunate position of being able to supply very good quality stones. The hardness of these gems is 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs Scale of hardness, the same as Peridot, Jasper, Chalcedony and Tiger's Eye. Care should be taken wearing rings made-up with Tanzanites. 

Earrings and pendants set with Tanzanites are not subject to the same wear and tear as rings, but should also be carefully looked after as well. 
 COLOUR: Blue/Violet or Violet/Blue. 

Actually there are 3 colours and flashes of red may be seen. REFRACTIVE INDEX: 1.691 to 1.700. CERTIFICATES: Each Tanzanite is supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity. Each certificate shows Cut, Colour, Clarity and Caratage.
