Colored Gemstones

Tanzania is home to a spectacular variety of gemstones, and we try to showcase as many of them as possible in our gemstone and jewelry collection, as well as other beautiful gemstones from around the world.

Some remarkable gemstones found in Tanzania, like spinel and tsavorite, have gained special recognition for their stunning colors and rarity. Spinel, often mistaken for rubies due to its vibrant red hue, comes in a range of beautiful colors including red, blue, pink and orange. Its brilliance and durability make it a sought-after choice for fine jewelry. Tsavorite, a striking green variety of garnet, is highly prized for its vivid color and exceptional clarity. Discovered in the 1960s in Tanzania, it has become one of the most popular gemstones in the world. Both spinel and tsavorite showcase Tanzania’s rich diversity in gemstones, offering unique and valuable options for collectors and jewelry lovers alike.
