Tanzanite is the Most Coveted Stone of the Year! #SafiKilimaTanzanite #TheYearofSafi
NEW YORK, June 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- It's no surprise that the color blue is starting to trend in jewelry as it marks the 50th anniversary of tanzanite being founded. Once a mineral oddity, tanzanite has evolved into one of the most desirable gemstone varieties. Tanzanite is now one of the most popular gemstones after the big four, which consists of diamonds, rubies, sapphires and emeralds.
Tanzanite formed millions of years ago in a metamorphic event under Africa's largest mountain, Mt. Kilimanjaro. Geological research teaches us that Tanzanite's geology is distinctive and only found within a very small area on the foothills of Mt. Kilimanjaro. Two distinct factors contribute to the stones appeal; the chances of it being discovered anywhere else in the world is less than "one in a million" and it's said that tanzanite is running out completely in the future.
Tanzanite's popularity is widespread amongst a variety of demographics. Now attracting a younger audience of millennials who are seeking unique colored stones to express their outspoken personalities. A popularly searched item on Pinterest, tanzanite is used widely in engagement rings, as graduation gifts and more often statement pieces amongst celebrities. Dating back to 2013, tanzanite quickly gained popularity as Sarah Jessica Parker flaunted a stunning Tiffany's tanzanite necklace. Shortly after, red carpet hotties and designers alike are using this sensational gemstone to make jaw-dropping statement pieces.
Diamonds International is one of the only jewelry companies to jump on this luscious stone's appeal by introducing the brand; Safi Kilima Tanzanite. Celebrating 10 years since its launch, Safi Kilima Tanzanite is or one of the leading tanzanite brand(s) in the Caribbean, Mexico and Alaska.
