WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE LESSER-KNOWN GEMSTONES
TANZANITE
Found in Tanzania just thirty short years ago, this stone is one of the newest additions to the birthstone calendar. It has been said that this gem was discovered when a strikeĀ of lighting caught a field on fire. As the fire died down cattle herders noticed that the zoiscite crystals that were once brown now had a deep blue/purple tone.
