FAQs about Tanzanite Engagement Rings

What are tanzanite engagement rings?

Tanzanite engagement rings are rings that feature tanzanite as the main gemstone rather than a diamond. Our tanzanite ring designs range across many styles including solitaire rings, three-stone rings or halo engagement rings featuring tanzanite as the main gem.

A tanzanite engagement ring symbolizes the promise of forever. It also carries this gemstone’s unique symbolism of enhanced cognition, optimism and intuition. As one of the birthstones for December, tanzanite is a great addition for rings representing December weddings, engagements, anniversaries, or other significant events in your relationship.  

What metal is the best match for tanzanite?

Plus
The bright, white tone of white gold makes an ideal backdrop for the cool, blue tanzanite.

Additional types of gold are also becoming popular choices for tanzanite rings including yellow or rose gold. These different gold colors can bring added contrast to a tanzanite engagement ring. 

Is tanzanite a good choice for engagement rings?

Plus
For those who dare to be different, blue tanzanite engagement rings make a beautiful, colorful choice. However, tanzanite ranks a 7 on the Mohs scale, making it considerably softer than other gemstones like rubies. It’s more prone to cleavage and thermal shock, so for some very active people, it may not be suitable for daily wear.

If you’re wondering how to clean tanzanite rings, it’s best to focus on gentle cleaning approaches. Use a specialized jewelry cleaning solution or a mixture of mild soap and water. Dry with a soft washcloth and polish your ring’s metal with a jewelry polishing cloth.

Tanzanite engagement rings, even those that also feature diamonds, should not be cleaned in ultrasonic cleaners. 

What does an engagement ring with tanzanite symbolize?

As with any unique engagement ring, the ultimate meaning of a tanzanite ring is the everlasting commitment between two partners.

What gemstones pair well with tanzanite?

Plus
With unique hues and play-of-color, tanzanite pairs perfectly with many gems. For a style that lets tanzanite steal the show, opt for a tanzanite diamond ring.
