22.29 Ct. Cabochon Tanzanite from Tanzania

One exceptional translucent tanzanite is presented here, a single round cabochon weighing 22.29 carats, with precise dimensions of 14.61 x 14.63 x 10.97 mm. The stone displays a vivid violet hue with intense color saturation, and it has been evaluated with a clarity grade of included at eye level. The cabochon cut emphasizes the gem body color and surface luster, and the excellent polish produces a smooth, reflective finish across the dome. This tanzanite has been heat treated to enhance its intrinsic blue violet tones, a common and accepted treatment for tanzanite, and its documented origin is Tanzania. These measured characteristics, when considered together, describe a substantial and visually striking specimen, suitable for a prominent single stone setting or a collector example, with the weight and diameter providing a commanding presence in wearable or display applications.

Optically, the cabochon form of this tanzanite harmonizes translucency and depth, allowing light to penetrate the dome and reveal layered color nuances. The intense color intensity recorded on this gem is particularly well suited to the cabochon profile because the rounded surface reduces light leakage that sometimes diminishes color in faceted stones. The included clarity grade indicates natural internal features that are visible at eye level, these inclusions contribute to the gem character and confirm natural origin while remaining part of the overall aesthetic appeal. The excellent polish contributes to a satiny sheen that enhances perceived richness, and the combination of size, color, and finish gives a luxurious visual weight without relying on exaggerated sparkle. Practical mounting suggestions include bezel or secure prong styles that protect the rounded profile and display the stone face up, or a custom pendant design that centers the piece and allows controlled light interaction to maximize its violet saturation and tactile presence on the hand or at the throat.

As a gift, this tanzanite makes a distinctive and memorable choice for a special recipient who values natural gemstones and considered design. The stone’s generous 22.29 carat weight and deep violet color create an immediate, elegant impression that suits milestone celebrations such as anniversaries, significant birthdays, or commemorative achievements. The documented Tanzanian origin and transparent disclosure of enhancement reflect the standards upheld by The Natural Gemstone Company, and the stone is presented with full specification information to support informed selection. For care, gentle cleaning with warm water and a mild detergent is recommended, with avoidance of ultrasonic cleaning if inclusions suggest caution, and storage separate from harder stones to protect the polished dome. This tanzanite combines tangible presence with geological story, making it a meaningful and striking gift that conveys thoughtfulness, rarity, and enduring beauty.
