Tanzanite is a rare and vibrant gemstone that exhibits a rich, deep blue to violet color. Found only in a small area near Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, it is one of the most sought-after gems due to its unique origins and striking appearance. Tanzanite is a variety of the mineral zoisite, and its captivating color is caused by trace amounts of vanadium.
The gemstone is pleochroic, meaning it can show different colors when viewed from different angles—typically blue, violet, and sometimes burgundy or brown. This characteristic gives tanzanite a dynamic, multi-dimensional brilliance. The blue hues in high-quality stones are often compared to sapphires, while the purplish tones add an extra level of beauty. Most tanzanite is heat-treated to enhance its vibrant blue color, as it naturally occurs in a more brownish tone.
Tanzanite is prized in jewelry for its extraordinary color, rarity, and luster. Since it is only found in Tanzania, some predict that its supply may become exhausted in the coming decades, making it even more valuable. Although it is softer than other gemstones like sapphire or diamond, tanzanite is highly valued in both fine and custom jewelry for its exotic beauty and relative rarity.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.
When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.
