Description

A fantastic natural Gem. crystal directly from the mine in Tanzania!

tanzanite is well known in the mineral market, is precious stone, is unique and quite expensive, a perfect investment but this particular specimen is one of most rarest thanks to great pleochroism (change color, is visible when we turn the specimen from right to left and vice versa) this specimen show bi-coloraton all the time, is not necessary to move it as pictured.
The quality is great, top luster with amazing transparency and of course sharp color. crystal is terminated.
