Before you choose
A bracelet should clear the wrist bone with one finger of slack. Tennis lines wear closer; bangles need to pass the widest part of the hand.
Prongs on a wrist catch sweaters and door frames. Our tennis lines are bezel or half-bezel set for exactly this reason.
A tennis bracelet is only as good as its box clasp and safety eight. Open ours before you buy; it should close like a car door.
Mixed stones in one metal always work together. Matched stones in mixed metals rarely do.
The short answer
Tanzanite bracelets at Made With Color: one one of a kind work at $3,240, each built around a stone chosen loose, in daylight, in New York. Violet blue from one hill in Tanzania, evening in a stone. Every stone ships with a passport naming origin, carat, cut, and any treatment in plain words.
Violet blue from one hill in Tanzania, evening in a stone. We choose every stone loose, in daylight, and every work above carries a passport that says exactly what it is.
Tanzanite is 6.5 / 10 on the Mohs scale. For daily rings, choose a bezel or low prongs; for earrings and pendants, wear it freely.
Measure the wrist and add three quarters of an inch for a bracelet, one inch for a bangle.
Tennis lines want safety clasps. Bangles want a hinge if knuckles run large.
Tanzanite is 6.5 / 10 on the Mohs scale. A bracelet meets desks and door frames all day. Bezels and inline settings survive; high prongs do not.
Tanzanite is the Dec birthstone and the traditional stone of the 24th anniversary. We set it for both, and for no occasion at all.
Untreated unless the passport says otherwise. When a stone of ours is heated or grown in a lab, the passport says so in that word, in the same type size as everything else, and the price reflects it.
