When gemologists first brought unknown, deep blue gemstones from the steppe sands of Tanzania to New York in 1967, no one initially suspected what an extraordinary treasure had been discovered there. Only the buyers at Tiffany & Co. recognized its uniqueness and secured the rights to this new mineral. The gemstone, which is a thousand times rarer on the earth's surface than the diamond, was given the name tanzanite - a tribute to its country of origin. Its color and radiant clarity soon made tanzanite one of the most sought-after gemstones in the world. This pendant features a magnificent tanzanite of around 4.55 carats. Its intense blue with subtle violet nuances is reminiscent of the flowers of a hyacinth. The gemstone is cut in the shape of a drop and forms the centerpiece of the design. Eight sparkling marquise and brilliant-cut diamonds with a total weight of around 0.45 carats shimmer above it. They are set in fine prongs and combine to form a harmonious composition, which also forms the back for the gold chain. An independent expert opinion from Vienna accompanies this piece of jewellery and describes the quality of the materials and gemstones used here. This pendant from the manufactory of Georg H. Leicht in Pforzheim combines rarity and natural beauty to create a lasting treasure.
