Our Sourcing

From mine to yours
We have an exclusive partnership with the world’s largest tanzanite mining company, which means that we can trace every gemstone all the way back to its source.
We also cut and polish each tanzanite from the rough, and craft all of our jewelry in-house.
This unique business model means Tanzanite Direct is the only online company where you can be absolutely sure of your tanzanite’s exact origin and provenance, the conditions under which it was mined, as well as the quality and ethical status of the gemstone and jewelry manufacturing process.

How to Get the Most Accurate Appraisal
We Recommend " Blind " Appraisals
The best way to obtain a truly independent valuation is to take your piece to a local jeweller or certified appraiser.
We strongly recommend doing this “blind.”
That means:
Don’t tell them where you bought the gemstone
Don’t tell them how much you paid
Don’t show them any of our documents
Don’t reveal any background information at all
This ensures the appraisal is completely objective and gives you absolute confidence in the true retail value of your tanzanite.
