We have always enjoyed these ‘fancy’ Tanzanites, or more correctly, Zoisites. We are consistently on the lookout for fine greens and pinks, but this one is special. Not only is the primary bodycolor a fine medium tone orange, the stone is exceptionally dichroic face-up with the most wonderful shade of pink being the modifier. The orientation of the rough has produced a stone that combines two of the rarest color for this species into one superb stone. One very well hidden and thin veil. Exceptionally rare to see these over 1 carat.
