3.96 Carat Natural Tanzanite VS A Fair Pear Cut from Tanzania
- Description
This substantial 3.96 carat natural Tanzanite displays a Light Violet Blue colour with a soft violet-dominant appearance and brighter blue-violet flashes around the perimeter. Its broad pear shape, generous face-up dimensions and elegant pointed outline create a distinctive gemstone for a design-led jewellery piece.
Assessed as VS clarity and A quality, the gemstone offers good transparency and lively peripheral reflections. A large, persistent central window materially reduces face-up colour concentration and brilliance through the middle, while slight darker areas appear near portions of the perimeter. No chip or significant surface damage was confirmed, making it best suited to a pendant, brooch or carefully protected bespoke design where size, shape and soft colour are prioritised over maximum light return.

THINGS TO CONSIDER
- Severe central windowing materially reduces colour concentration and brilliance through the middle.
- The colour is light and softly saturated rather than medium or strong.
- A minute pinpoint-like feature is visible near the lower-central table under close enlargement, but it does not materially affect the gemstone’s appearance or durability.
- Slight dark areas appear around portions of the perimeter at certain angles, although they change substantially as the gemstone moves.
- Tanzanite has directional cleavage, and the pear point and girdle should be protected from sharp impacts.
IDEAL FOR
- A substantial Tanzanite pendant
- A Tanzanite brooch
- A carefully protected dress ring
- December birthstone jewellery
- Bespoke jewellery with a protective pear-point setting
KINGFISHER RECOMMENDATION
This A-quality Tanzanite may appeal to someone prioritising a substantial 3.96 carat size, soft violet-blue colour and distinctive pear outline. Its severe central window is an important cutting deduction and should be reflected in pricing, but the gemstone retains attractive peripheral flashes, good transparency and a generous face-up spread. A pendant, brooch or carefully protected bespoke design would make the most of these qualities.
