      "I decided to purchase a stone that was cut by a 'known' cutter to see if there was any difference to me, an amateur, in how it presents. End result was, although a beautiful stone the faceting does not appear to be all that different from the non-Katzenberg stones. And I believe that the increase in price is due solely to the association. I had this stone appraised through a JTV appraiser and no great increase in value, hmm. But the other tanzanites that I have purchased, non-Katzenberg, and not triple-A, received a far better appraisal, some triple value to what I had paid. I AM NOT RETURNING THIS STONE it is a beautiful blue, and presents great! All I'm saying is don't think you're missing out on something if your stone was cut by an unknown - mine are fantastic and compete well with this one."

      Fast Facts
      The mineral zoisite was discovered around 1805 in the Austrian area by a Baron for whom it was named. It was usually brown in color, often nearly opaque.
      The discovery by accident of the tanzanite version, in the late 1960's was a great surprise in Tanzania Africa, where it was first thought to be sapphire crystals.
      The name Tanzanite was coined by Tiffany who had first and exclusive rights to the pretty blue violet mineral for many years.
      Wearing a well-cut Tanzanite communicates self-confidence, individuality, and maturity.
      Its brilliant color and its exclusive origin in Tanzania combine to make Tanzanite a unique and highly sought after gemstone.




      Tanzanite is a variety of zoisite. It has naturally occurring shades of blue, green, yellow, pink, brown and khaki but virtually all gemstone quality crystals are heat treated to produce the highly valued shades of sapphire blue, amethyst and blue violet. On Mohs’ scale of hardness, tanzanite is 6.5-7. The prime source of all the world’s tanzanite is in Tanzania near Arusha.
