My husband upgraded my diamond engagement ring with a 7mm round cut Tanzanite with 1/2 ct in diamonds. I loved my original diamond ring, but I love this so much more. The first time I saw Tanzanite in the late 90's, it was love at first sight. I love my ring.
This demonstration has been unbelievably value to me as I've come into rather many loose gemstones as well as mounted pieces. Only question, which I'm certain is in the other videos but I've yet to find it so, what are best ways to determine, primarily tanzanite & paraiba tourmaline, that are mounted.
Although I respect GIA you don’t get much for the $120 to $150 it will cost with postage to get a identification report on a tanzanite. And it will take 2-4 weeks. You will not get a quality grade only measurements weight and I.D as tanzanite. I have not started getting grading reports on tanzanite because they are easy to I.D. Gems that have synthetics like diamond, ruby, sapphire and emerald are what I have G.I.A do reports on because these are difficult to I.D. And you will also get a statement of treatments whereas they will not give a treatment status on tanzanite. Trust us and our 4 decades of buying and selling tanzanite to supply you with the highest quality genuine tanzanite. You will get an appraisal with overall quality grade plus, type of treatment as well as everything G. I .A. provides. To the best of my knowledge an appraisal is a legal document whereas a grading report is an opinion with enough disclaimers that it is not a legal document.

I. Fluid and I would recommend removing batteries after every use
Love your videos. Explained in a way that is easy to understand. I do have a question though. I have a tanzanite that shows light brown under a chelsea filter as it's supposed to, slightly dichroic under dichroscope, but under the Hanneman Tanzanite filter under a strong incandescent bulb, the stone remains dark blue, when it is supposed to pink-ish. Can this happen with Tanzanite or is it fake?
My favourite. I have 3. A 2 carat, a 3 1/2 carat, a 4 1/2 carat all surrounded by over a carat of diamonds. Lots of blue with some sparks of red in them. I also have IOLITE. I see a big difference in the two.
Very helpful thank you! But what about tanzanite beads -how do one tell fakes there? And I am asking about smooth cut round beads -not facetted. I see a lot of 'tanzanite' beads that looks like iolite with their less vibrant color -a more greyish purple I use gem beads for their therapeutic effect and each gem have their special affinities so I really need to know how to get the real ones
Very helpful video and I buy gems and jewelry from thrift stores and estate sales and I am a reseller who only sells tested and verified gems and jewelry.
Hi. I have a stone im thinking is diechoric or peacock tanzanite. The guy i bought it from thought it is Alexandrite and so did i at first.. but its not color changing so much as it presents two colors at same time primarily green and red but lesser purple and yellow . It can also apear grey green and almost clear. Ive got to listen again and look under microscope
QUESTION 4 YA STEVE, SO IF I HAD A GENUINE 'AAAA TANZANITE' LOOSE GEM & VIEWED IT UNDER MY CELL PHONE USING A MAGNIFYER & MICROSCOPE UNDER A 'NEGATIVE FILTER' COLOR SETTING HOW SHOULD A GENUINE GEM APPEAR/LOOK?
Awesome very exciting my dream stone and birthstone.... I got 4 birthstones because of December..... other 3 zircon, blue topaz, turquoise... thank you 😊🙏❤
Thank you I'm going to use this to check my mom's ri g she just bought. Sadly it was at a gem show so there is zero recourse if she was taken advantage of
What kind of light does the refractometer use? I've got a guy trying to sell me one but it doesn't have the light, nor the refractive index fluid. Can I use it with any light and is the fluid cheep?
thank you -I'm not sure if I can catch any direction with beads though -I got the hanneman filter and the beads show blue and purple under the light filters but under the dark ..well the light turns 'everything' green (the light looks green and everything else by first look) and there's a very slight orangy color but it's so subtle that I have doubts still edit -I used a more reddish/warm light and the beads definitely looks to be tanzanite beads -thanks again!
I'd like to see this video also presented in regard to other colors of tanzanite which also exist. I know the refractometer reading will give a consistent reading, and the dichroscope will give a consistent reaction, but my question is, will the Tanzanite filter give the same orange response regardless of whether the Tanzanite is naturally purple-blue, treated, or untreated brown, golden, pink, green, etc.? Thanks in advance.
Do you purchase estate pieces? I've gotten a few, and will receive another collection within few years & am very novice in knowing ideas where & how to tell some. Any thoughts would be fantastic
I am looking for the Tanzanite filter to buy it on internet (Google, Ebay, Amazon, etc.), but I cannot find any info. about this. Someone know any link?
Hi Steve I am a big fan of your cutting videos online ,I am considering buying some cut Tanzanite online,I have seen what looks like very good Tanzanite from india ,I mean very inexpensive ,can you give me any advice ,I am very budget restricted and it is really tempting to buy these cheaper stones , certified natural supposedly from India ,what do you think ,
@@Moregems thank you.as I thought ya ,I mean I have to start somewhere ,I could see the cut had issues ,but ,I may risk it and just see what arrives ,,I'll let you know how it goes ,many thanks Steve soon hopefully I'll be able to afford ,a beautiful piece from you ,very best regards Brian.
I know you were asking him but I see he didn't respond. A jeweler told me that a round brilliant cut in Tanzanite is very difficult and cost more than the standard cushion cut.
Yes, I am a subscriber. Thank you for showing the new Ethiopian Emerald on your other video. Hope you will show also the new found Sapphire from Northern Ethiopia too.
We haven't had a chance to buy anything yet, but we are headed to the Denver show next month. We'll see if there is anything there. Steve hopes to visit Ethiopia soon, too.
Julie B. Purple tanzanite is real and can be seen as one color in color changing tanzanites when viewed in incandescent light and some rare tanzanites are purple in all lights
how interesting... I have two Tanzanite gems which I purchased some time ago and did't even consider that they might be fake... I bought them from different locations and recall that one is heated and the other is not... now I'm worried ... ha ha
Thank you again Steve.! I bet your wife has such a Gorgeous collection..😍😍💖 I actually went ahead and bought the tanzanite filter you showed... I bought a GORGEOUS 14kt gold, ring with 1.70 Carat Drak blue Labeled AAA Tanzanite & 1carat of diamonds. The seller is from india & i couldn’t pass up the deal of only 245$. It comes with a Egl certificate. (i know egl is terrible.) I will take it to GIA. but the tanzanite was so gorgeous & the seller offers 60day returns plus had over 2000 amazing postive feedbacks and they specialize in Tanzinite. So after question him alot, I bought it & this filter will be phenomenal for me. I will eventually buy the larger machine your using. But this will work perfectly. I already own several real tanzanite rings & i find it very easy to see the colors even in incandescent lights with my jewlers loop. The rings im wearing are lighter blue ones but omg the reds they show are amaazing..! Thank you so much for telling me about this filter. Im so excited to get it.! I love seeing the colors. Also I’m talking to my fiance about having your company making my engagement ring. I can NEVER HAVE TO MUCH JEWELRY.! 😉😍😍😍Thanks again😘😘
Jessica IsHere As it is difficult to buy the 14 karat mounting for $ 245 I would be concerned about this deal. Something is wrong. Keep in mind that synthetic diamonds are common and not easily identifiable. Although at that price even synthetic is too costly.
MoreGems.com ill keep you updated the ring. 😉 Also, i made sure to give my fiance your email for him to message you. I told him the size tanzanite & color I want for it. It will be extra special for both of us, if you make it. His grandparents actually live out in Indiana. So my fiance loved the thought of having it made by you, even more since your out of Indiana 💖🥰
@@Moregems Steve ~ you was 1000% Right..!🤦🏼♀️😭 I got the ring and the “digital egl certificates” 🙄 looked so shady.! I opened the ring & “tanzanite graded AA” i could tell it wasnt tanzanite within 6seconds of looking at it & the color was such a dark blue that if it was real ~ it would of been graded “AAAA”. It looked super flimsy too. Plus the tanzanite wasn’t even tricolored at all like all my other pieces. Im a huge jewlery collector and i can tell poor quality very easy w/a glance. I told the buyer and they insisted everything was real. I used the tanzanite filter and darkest one was green.😰 😤🤬 So i took it into my local jewler & had them look the entire ring over. Come to find out even though its stamped 14kt white gold ~ it wasn’t gold at all.! It was silver stamped 14kt white gold. 😤🤬 Poor quality lab diamonds & the tanzanite was a doublet with dark blue glass on back of it. I reported them to ebay but they acted like it was no big deal. 🤦🏼♀️ I told them this is a federal offense and as bad as selling counterfeit money...! They don’t care though..🤦🏼♀️🙄😭 Im returning the ring for my 260$+ ebay forced them to accept return... take away ~ ILL NEVER BUY FROM INDIA AGAIN.! Thanks for being so helpful.! I greatly appreciate you. I also gave me fiance your email so im sure he will be in touch soon. Thanks so much..! Jess
Dean Jelbert Austria you can see our selection of top quality tanzanite with pricing online here: www.tanzanitejewelrydesigns.com/collections/gemstones
The term fake tanzanite just implies that a stone was sold as or implicitly documented as a natural mined gemstone to obtain a higher value than what it is. A simulant or synthetic manmade to imitate a tanzanite does not make it a fake tanzanite. Just saying...
I think I made a mistake by buying raw Tanzanite on etsy. They looked convincing enough, inclusions and not all uniform colour like they were actually mined and not grown. I hope they are real Tanzanite 😬
You can see some of our natural tanzanite crystals on our website here: www.tanzanitejewelrydesigns.com/collections/crystals There are no synthetic tanzanite (grown) on the market, only imitations, which are other minerals that somewhat look like tanzanite.
Have you seen the enormous amount of fake tanzanite on eBay ? Tons of pretty blue glass being sold for pennies. eBay feels no motive to clean up this fraud even though it would raise the quality of the marketplace for honest gem sellers.
then that means the video wasn't meant for you. these are tools and procedures those Jewelers do when you take it. and don't have the mentality that you don't have to learn something because you can just have someone else do it.
And then several years later. Lab created hit the market. And now unless you happen to get one with a GIA cert they just have no value. So all of this build up on investing in tanzanite is rather worthless today. And if you do not believe. Go and look for yourselves. Both the Chinese and India markets are pushing lab specimens something fierce. The 2.75 carat natural in a setting I purchased years ago has now dropped in value over 80%. That sucks people. Truly.
i'm sorry. It wasn't my intention to insult you or hurt your feelings, vikash K J. I know one of my ears hears half the volume of sound the other does, so I have my own issues from the sound pollution of life and too many ear-splitting rock concerts. lol.

Thank you I'm going to use this to check my mom's ri g she just bought. Sadly it was at a gem show so there is zero recourse if she was taken advantage of
What kind of light does the refractometer use? I've got a guy trying to sell me one but it doesn't have the light, nor the refractive index fluid. Can I use it with any light and is the fluid cheep?
Yes any light will work. The fluid is not too expensive particularly the one that goes up To 1.80 refractive index. 1.81 is a little more.
what is the model of the ade refractometer and dichroscope?
Thank you. Can you use the filter to tell if it is iolite (or other stones) as tanzanite beads?
Yes or use a dicroscope. Iolite will always show a colorless direction to the naked eye.
thank you -I'm not sure if I can catch any direction with beads though -I got the hanneman filter and the beads show blue and purple under the light filters but under the dark ..well the light turns 'everything' green (the light looks green and everything else by first look) and there's a very slight orangy color but it's so subtle that I have doubts still
edit -I used a more reddish/warm light and the beads definitely looks to be tanzanite beads -thanks again!

Sorry I don’t remember
Thank you! This was very helpful.
How do I tell the difference between Iolite and Tanzanite in a smooth polished round bead?
One direction on the Iolite will be colorless
@@Moregems Using which tool?
Do you purchase estate pieces? I've gotten a few, and will receive another collection within few years & am very novice in knowing ideas where & how to tell some. Any thoughts would be fantastic
like the music in the end
What do you think of iolite? Some deposits near me in WY I've collected from... strongest pleocroisim I've seen rock hounding.
Tad Meister iolite shouldn’t have pleochrorism
Does using a black light work as well?
Tanzanite can lose colour under certain lights - be careful and check before you shine.
Hi can you tell the authenticity through a picture
I was wondering if u know why there is no synthetic tanzanites why carnt they be made through hydrothermal method like sapphires and emeralds?
Oakley Mills Not sure what the issues with synthesis is. Could be lack of financial motive to produce.

Make sure your Tanzanite is officially certified by the GIA

6.5-7

I am a natural zultanite producer
thank you .. now I go to buy some stones ! :))
Can you loud your voice dude
No volume
Or you can go to a jeweler, which I did so my tanzanite was confirmed real.
The Exotic Shorthair - that works too, but these are the tools that we use (as jewelers) to identify and confirm a gem is Tanzanite.
then that means the video wasn't meant for you. these are tools and procedures those Jewelers do when you take it. and don't have the mentality that you don't have to learn something because you can just have someone else do it.
Creo que sere la unica que habla español buscando un video donde le quitan latex a la tanzanita :'^, estan relajante :'v
And then several years later. Lab created hit the market. And now unless you happen to get one with a GIA cert they just have no value.
So all of this build up on investing in tanzanite is rather worthless today. And if you do not believe. Go and look for yourselves.

I know one of my ears hears half the volume of sound the other does, so I have my own issues from the sound pollution of life and too many ear-splitting rock concerts. lol. I cranked the volume up on my laptop and the Mr. Steve was loud enough the volume had to go down. That's why I'm thinking you may have some hearing loss, my friend.
peace~
