This is sensational - a deep purple blue color. Good cut and very good clarity. The gem is beautiful regardless of the not 100% solid saturation which can be seen in the photo. It is a shallow cut gem with a slight window which always disappears with clever setting - and it is a bargain! Please note there is some reflection of camera equipment in a couple of the images which gives dark tones to the facets that do not exist. With the extortionate price of Tanzanite at the moment a good value gem is hard to find - a perfect cut, perfect saturation and clarity is costing the earth!
Please consider the level of magnification of this gem which is way beyond the 10 times magnification used for grading - we use a Nikon camera and top of the range Macro lens and a light tent. So some of the flaws you may see in the photo you will not even see with a magnifier. The certificate for the gemstone will be included in the sale and it was certified by a friend of ours who is a Fellow of the Gemmological Association of Great Britain.

Fantastic Seller, will do business again.
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.
