Allow me to introduce a gem that embodies refined taste and unmistakable presence, an offering from The Natural Gemstone Company that will transform any jewelry design into an object of desire. This is a beautiful transparent 1.36 carat cushion shape violetish blue tanzanite, a stone whose very name suggests rarity and elegance. At 7.32 x 5.48 x 4.53 mm, its proportions are perfectly balanced, offering a commanding table and depth that invite the eye to linger. The mixed brilliant cut has been chosen to harmonize the tanzanite’s natural pleochroism with exceptional scintillation, giving the stone both internal fire and surface brilliance. Evaluated at eye level, the clarity is eye clean, a clarity grade that allows the color to sing without distraction. The color intensity is intense, a vivid violetish blue that feels both modern and timeless, and the polish is excellent, delivering a mirror finish that elevates the gem into the realm of fine jewelry. Origin Tanzania, enhancement heat treated, a practiced and stable method to reveal the most desirable hues of this extraordinary material.
The color of this tanzanite is its calling card, a saturated violetish blue that sits between royal blue and velvety purple, a tone that reads as sumptuous in every light. Because it is eye clean, the stone presents that color with uncompromised purity, each facet refracting and reflecting the hue with a clarity that is rare at this size. The mixed brilliant cut was selected to maximize both return of light and color depth, creating a scintillating play that appears alive as the stone moves. In direct light, the facets dance with lively flashes of blue, while under softer lighting the violet undertone emerges with enriching warmth. This interplay makes the gem ideal for a statement piece, because it commands attention without needing to be overly large. The intense color intensity ensures that even from a distance the jewel reads as vibrant and cultivated, while the excellent polish creates crisp facet junctions that enhance luminous performance and convey superior cutting craftsmanship.
Size and presence matter when crafting a signature item, and this 1.36 carat cushion tanzanite occupies a sweet spot where impact meets wearability. At 7.32 mm across the table, the gem is large enough to be unmistakable, yet refined enough to suit a variety of settings from a poised solitaire ring to a dramatic pendant, or an elegant cocktail ring surrounded by accent diamonds. The cushion shape offers a soft, rounded silhouette that flatters the hand and neck, while the mixed brilliant pavilion ensures depth and brilliance that make the stone feel larger than its carat weight might imply. The dimensions of 7.32 x 5.48 x 4.53 mm reveal a stone with generous table and well controlled depth, a geometry that lends itself to bezel, halo, or four prong settings with confidence. As a centerpiece, this tanzanite establishes the wearer as someone who appreciates cultivated luxury and thoughtful proportion, a person who recognizes that true style is not loudness alone but considered presence. The gem’s Tanzanian origin adds a provenance of story and authenticity, grounding the jewel in a place renowned for producing the finest tanzanites in the world.
Owning this tanzanite is more than acquiring a gemstone, it is making a statement about personal achievement and enduring taste, a choice that reflects a discerning eye and a commitment to beauty. At The Natural Gemstone Company we stand behind both the aesthetic and the integrity of the stone, and we are happy to assist with bespoke setting suggestions that will honor its color, clarity, and cut.
