Description
This 2.66 ct Tanzanite from Merelani Hills, Tanzania combines a classic cushion cut with an attractive purple violet color, giving the stone a refined and expressive appearance. As a single stone from the world’s only known Tanzanite source, it offers the rarity, individuality, and elegance that make Tanzanite so highly appreciated in fine jewelry and serious gemstone collections.
Purple violet color with elegant depth
This Tanzanite shows a beautiful purple violet tone with a rich and sophisticated character. Compared with more purely blue examples, stones in this color range often appear especially distinctive and expressive, with a lively mix of violet bodycolor and subtle flashes that change beautifully under different lighting conditions. This makes the gem particularly appealing for buyers looking for something slightly different within the Tanzanite family.
Cushion cut — timeless and versatile
The cushion cut is one of the most enduring gemstone shapes, valued for its balanced outline, softly rounded corners, and elegant overall look. It combines classic charm with strong face-up presence, making it an excellent choice for fine jewelry designs such as:
- statement rings
- refined pendants
- halo settings
- bespoke collector pieces
Its proportions give the stone a full and important appearance while maintaining a graceful, wearable character.
A strong center stone for jewelry or collection
At 2.66 ct, this Tanzanite has a very desirable size for an important custom jewelry piece. It is large enough to stand out clearly as a centerpiece, while still remaining elegant and practical for regular wear in a ring or pendant. At the same time, Tanzanite of attractive color and solid size from Merelani also has clear appeal for collectors who value single-origin gemstones with limited supply.
A beautiful Tanzanite from Merelani Hills with classic cushion proportions and an elegant purple violet color — well suited for exceptional jewelry or a carefully chosen gemstone collection.
