Engagement Rings Tanzanite FAQs
With its beautiful blue hue, some couples love tanzanite as an engagement ring choice - especially as it is more affordable than sapphire and similar in colour. Its rarity and the fact that it symbolises optimism for the future are further reasons why it suits the time of engagement - and it's a gem that's growing in popularity, too.
As it is softer than other gems such as diamonds, though, special care must be taken to ensure that your tanzanite gemstone is set in the right way to avoid damage. For peace of mind, order tanzanite engagement rings from a trusted jewellery expert, like Abelini.
Generally, it is recommended that the gemstone you choose for an engagement ring measures at least 7.5 on the Mohs hardness scale. Tanzanite, however, tends to measure between 6 and 7, meaning that it is not as tough as other gemstones that are used in engagement rings.
It is a stone that is not particularly tough, and one that is also prone to cleavage: if struck, tanzanite stones can break. In an engagement ring, which is subject to daily wear and tear, this isn't ideal.
However, with the right setting that protects the stone, the risk of damage can be minimised and tanzanite rings can last a lifetime.
