Tanzanite is one of the precious gems and a great example of a trichoric gemstone which means it has the ability to showcase three different colors when you see it from diverse angles. This makes the tanzanites the most alluring gem & this way you can identify the authenticity of this beautiful gemstone.

Understanding Tanzanite Gemstone

As mentioned above, the Tanzanite gemstone is the one that has a pretty inky blue shade but if you see it from diverse angles then it can display multiple colors of both red & violet, like a trichoric gemstone. So if you want to confirm the authenticity of the tanzanite gem then you can do it by just noticing them from different angles. When you see the tanzanites from different angles then you might be able to recognize the difference between real and fake ones.

One more important thing that you should keep in mind is the room lighting as it affects the color of the gemstone. In the bright white fluorescent lightning, the tanzanite gem will look more like a dark royal blue.
