1.72 Carat Natural Tanzanite VVS A+ Good Oval Cut from Tanzania

This attractive 1.72 carat natural Tanzanite displays a Medium Blue Violet colour with a balanced combination of blue and violet tones. Its elegant oval outline, substantial depth and pleasing proportions give the gemstone a refined appearance and a versatile jewellery size.

Assessed as VVS clarity and A+ quality, the gemstone offers excellent apparent transparency with no definite internal inclusion identified in the supplied media. Its deeper pavilion prevents persistent face-up windowing, although moderate extinction creates noticeable dark areas in some viewing positions. These areas shift as the gemstone moves, revealing attractive blue-violet flashes around the centre and perimeter.

WHY WE LIKE THIS STONE

• Medium Blue Violet colour with a balanced blue-violet appearance
• VVS clarity with excellent apparent transparency
• Attractive oval outline with very good symmetry
• Substantial depth without persistent face-up windowing
• Appealing flashes around the perimeter during movement
• No confirmed chip, cavity or significant abrasion

THINGS TO CONSIDER

• Moderate extinction produces noticeable dark areas in several direct face-up positions.
• The dark areas change as the gemstone moves but reduce overall brightness compared with a higher-grade Tanzanite.
• The colour is attractive but does not reach the Strong, Rich or Royal Blue Violet levels.
• Its 4.67 mm depth should be considered when designing the finished setting.
• Tanzanite has directional cleavage and should be protected from sharp impacts.

IDEAL FOR

• A refined Tanzanite pendant
• A carefully protected dress ring
• December birthstone jewellery
• A personalised anniversary or occasion gift
• A bespoke jewellery design

KINGFISHER RECOMMENDATION

This VVS A+ Tanzanite represents good buying value for someone seeking a clean, well-proportioned oval gemstone with balanced Medium Blue Violet colour. Its absence of persistent windowing and excellent apparent clarity are notable strengths. Moderate extinction limits the overall brilliance and prevents a higher commercial quality grade, but the gemstone remains attractive when viewed in movement and would perform particularly well in a carefully designed pendant or protected dress-ring setting.
