Small Open Tanzanite Ring

Natural raw tanzanite copper open ring, handmade with love and care. Size of gemstones are 6-8mm.

Rings are made to order in your chosen size; please allow 3-5 days for manufacturing your perfect piece!

The gemstones we use are raw and unpolished, so they might have some” imperfections”. (In our opinion it adds to the beauty and individuality of each piece!) 

Each piece comes beautifully packaged, ready for gifting, with the relevant gemstone info card with thank you note and care instructions. 

Jewellery pieces are created by a process called copper electroforming, which allows for the deposition of copper electrolytes over several hours in a copper-acid solution. This results in unique and unpredictable textures, as the entire process is organic.

Please be aware that the colour of copper darkens over time, and the item can be cleaned using a sachet of Copperbrite and a soft cloth. (Available here) Copper can potentially turn the skin green as it reacts with the chemicals in some skins. A coat of clear nail polish will prevent this.

 About Tanzanite:

As Tanzania is the place of origin and the only source of this beautiful blue rock, it was aptly named thereafter. Unlike nearly all of the world’s most popular gemstones, tanzanite was not discovered in commercial quantities until the 1960s. In the short time since then, the popularity of this gemstone has overtaken many other gemstones within the past century. This was accomplished mainly by Tiffany’s in New York’s promotion thereof in the 1960’s coupled with tanzanite’s beautiful blue colour. It is also recognised for its remarkably strong trichroism, meaning that it appears alternately as blue, violet or burgundy, depending on which way the crystal is viewed.

Birthstone: Because of its growing popularity, Tanzanite was designated as a modern birthstone for the month of December in 2002.

Anniversary stone: 24^th

Symbolism:  

Tanzanite is said to represent the heart and intellect, combined with intuition and purity. These stones are used as symbols of dignity, truth, judgement and longevity. They are also used to assist in many healing processes.
