This necklace features a combination of green and blue gemstones, identified as tsavorite and tanzanite. Both gemstones have a noteworthy coincidence being identified in the same year at 1967. While this color combination is uncommon, it shows that it is worth challenging conventional norms. Innovation and broadening of thought can bring unexpected beauty. The tanzanite is a nice medium hued blue with tinges of violet that most people go in a tizz about, eye clean in an oval cut. The tsavorites are bright and saturated in green.
Available with or without the wheat chain, this pendant is priced competitively. Similar tanzanite pendants often weigh one-third as much yet cost twice as much!
