In June 2020, when Saniniu Kuryan Laizer discovered two gigantic tanzanite stones weighing 9.27kg and 5.1kg, the spotlight of the world media focused on him instantly, making him a celebrity overnight. He sold off those two unusual finds to the Tanzanian government for 7.7 billion Tanzanian shillings i.e. nearly $3.3 million!!
It’s not every day that we see a small prospector becoming a celebrity. It’s also quite uncommon to see celebrities favoring color gemstones in place of diamonds. Yet this rare gemstone has become the darling of celebrities and why not? Its mesmerizing purple-blue color is hard to resist if you are a jewelry aficionado and it’s said to be way more rare than diamonds.
Let’s see some of the celebrities who look absolutely at home setting a new trend with their new age tanzanite jewelry.
Kate Winslet in ‘The Titanic’
It’s hard to imagine anyone unaware of the epic love story portrayed in the 1997 hit The Titanic. Though it was a creation of unparalleled imagination, cinematography, acting and a lot more, it captured the hearts of millions of people around the world.
Another thing that captivated the attention of the audience was the unmistakably large pendant necklace called ‘The Heart of the Ocean‘ adorned by Rose, the character played by Kate Winslet.
In the film, The Heart of the Ocean was portrayed as a large rare blue diamond when in reality such deep saturation of blue color in a diamond is non-existent till now. There are different theories as to what it is made of. As per some accounts it is tanzanite whereas some say it is zirconia. Nevertheless, had it been a real blue diamond it would value close to $300 million, maybe more.
You can reinvent your own Heart of the Ocean with tanzanite. GemsNY is there to make it for you.
