December babies, you sure know how to make your entrance!  With Tanzanite as your stone, how could you not?  Your birthstone is the newest and one of the most rare gems in the world! It can only be found in Tanzania in a small region between Mt. Kilimanjaro and Olduvai Gorge.  

The actual discovery of Tanzanite is still widely debated, but Maasai legend says that the land was set on fire by the “magic fire from the sky,” which then transformed the ground into gorgeous shimmering blue-violet gems. The Maasai tribesmen filled their pouches with these gems knowing that the stones would bring them a better life.

The Queen

Please, make way for the Queen of Kilimanjaro. 

She is a hefty 242 carat piece of tanzanite, accented with 803 brilliant cut tsavorite garnets and 913 brilliant cut diamonds.  The Queen is one of the only tanzanites, not to mention the largest, to ever be put in a tiara. Gorgeous, isn’t she?

Although we can’t own that gorgeous hunk of jewelry, why not try out this tanzanite ring from our Pacifica collection? 

Mothers wear Tanzanite for baby’s health

This gorgeous blue and purple stone isn’t used just for its dashing good looks – although, it is definitely a great reason to wear it – it has a lot of properties that better your life too!

Tanzanite represents transformation and good fortune, it elevates one’s mood and frees the bearer from negative habits and energy. According to the Maasai, if given as a gift to a mother after the birth of their baby, their child will live a healthy, positive and successful life.

I think this 2.72 carat tanzanite and white diamond drop necklace would make a great gift for any mother! 

Stressed out before the holidays? Relax with Tanzanite!

This stone is a natural stress reliever. It relaxes and brings you back to a slower, more manageable pace if you deal with high pressure lifestyle.  It also wakens the mind and heart, and lowers blood pressure. It even clears the body of toxins that cause skin disorders!

So put it close to your skin and see the stress just melt away. I would be infinitely less stressed out if I could have these  drop earrings on my ears all the time!

Now, December babies, wear your stone proudly and make everyone in the room jealous of you at those upcoming holiday parties!
