Tanzanite with Diopside

Merelani Hills, Lelatema Mts, Arusha Region, Tanzania

4.26cm x 3.8cm x 1.15cm

134 cts


Description/Interesting Notes:

An absolutely incredible example of bicolor PINK and purple tanzanite!!! Examples of true, PINK tanzanite are extremely rare and highly sought after!!! This specimen consists of a broad plate of intergrown, parallel crystals of tanzanite that exhibit stunning color that ranges from a deep violet purple to an incredible, rich magenta pink!!! What makes this specimen even more aesthetic are the numerous bright, lime green diopside crystals in association!!! There are also some scattered areas of silvery metallic graphite present as well!!! The combination of colors is simply gorgeous in person!!! The tanzanite exhibits marked translucence with sharply defined, brilliantly lustrous crystal faces!!! While the specimen is not terminated, its rarity and significance as a pink tanzanite still makes it an exceptional and valuable specimen regardless!!! This specimen displays gorgeously in person and is full of color and brilliant sparkle!!! Rare material!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
