The Story of the Tanzanite

This Tanzanite, available for $6,895, was sourced by Roger in Tanzania in 2019 and faceted in his Signature Round design. Reena’s vision and creativity brought Roger’s precision faceting and connection to every gem alive with her inspired strokes this lifelike, curved edge painting! You can watch the process of the gem painting from start to finish here.

100% of the every raffle ticket through donation to Gem Legacy will be used for $125 Miner Toolkits, an initiative to put tools in the hands of miners to ensure their work is safe and successful.
