Gold Vermeil or 14K Solid Gold—Which One Goes Best with Your Tanzanite?

Both versions use real gold—the difference lies in their construction:

The fascinating blue-violet colour of tanzanite harmonizes particularly well with yellow gold and lends the piece an elegant, luxurious, and striking appearance. The interplay between the gemstone’s intense hues and the warm golden tone creates a particularly sophisticated look. Both designs are crafted from recycled gold and sourced from certified suppliers—unique gemstone jewellery created responsibly.

Genuine Tanzanite – Quality That Lasts

Genuine tanzanite jewellery, without compromise—that’s the Velur standard. Here’s what that means in practice:

• Every tanzanite is examined under a microscope for clarity, cut, and inclusions
• Each setting is digitally optimized to showcase the beauty of the tanzanite to its fullest
• Every surface is inspected multiple times before a piece of jewellery leaves our workshop.
• Lifetime warranty against all defects in materials and workmanship

Tanzanite is a variety of the mineral zoisite—a crystal whose blue-violet colour is caused by traces of vanadium. What makes it unique: Tanzanite is the only gemstone found exclusively in a single location in the world. Deposits are limited—experts estimate that the mines will be depleted in a few decades. This makes every genuine tanzanite a one-of-a-kind piece of jewellery with lasting value. 

Tanzanite is one of the rarest and most sought-after gemstones in the world—unique in its blue-violet colour and one-of-a-kind in its origin. Tanzanite is mined exclusively in a single region of the world: the Merelani Hills at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. Discovered in 1967, it has since become one of the most valuable gemstones in existence. As the birthstone for December, it symbolizes elegance, rarity, and timeless beauty. 

What distinguishes a genuine tanzanite:

• Colour – characteristic blue to violet, ranging from indigo blue to a rich blue-violet depending on the angle of the light
• Pleochroism – Tanzanite displays different shades of colour depending on the viewing angle – blue, violet, and burgundy
• Cut – often oval or in various other shapes to maximize the play of colour
• Clarity – High-quality tanzanites have barely visible inclusions
• Rarity—the only gemstone found exclusively in a single region of the world

Tanzanite Cleaning & Care

Tanzanite is a soft gemstone with a hardness of 6–7 on the Mohs scale—it requires particularly careful care:

• Clean with a soft cloth and lukewarm water
• Do not use ultrasonic cleaners—tanzanite is sensitive to vibrations and damage
• Protect from impacts—the stone may become scratched or damaged if subjected to a strong impact
• Store separately—do not store together with harder gemstones
• No fumes or chemicals—harsh cleaning agents can damage the surface
