Loose Tanzanite

Loose Tanzanite Gemstones — Faceted, Calibrated & Wholesale Parcels

This collection brings together a curated selection of loose tanzanite gemstones sourced directly from Tanzania — the only known origin of this stone in the world. Whether you are a jewelry designer sourcing calibrated stones for production, a collector acquiring rare parcels, or a wholesale buyer looking for volume deals, this collection is built around your specific needs. Every stone listed here is a faceted, loose tanzanite ready for setting or resale.

What This Collection Covers

The listings in this collection span a range of sizes, shapes, and parcel weights. You will find calibrated oval tanzanite stones in standard millimeter sizes suited for repeat production runs, triangle-cut stones for statement pieces, and wholesale parcel deals ranging from 15 carats to 100 carats per lot. Sizes run from 4mm to 6.5mm per piece, with individual stone weights from 0.20 to 0.70 carats. Larger calibrated parcels of 20 carats are also available for designers who need matched sets.

Who These Stones Are For

Jewelry designers and goldsmiths who require consistent calibrated sizes for ring, pendant, and earring production will find reliable options here. Wholesale buyers and gem dealers sourcing tanzanite in bulk will benefit from the parcel deals structured for trade volume. Collectors focused on rare or single-origin stones will find individual pieces with documented Tanzanian origin. This collection is also relevant for December birthstone buyers seeking tanzanite as an alternative to blue topaz or zircon.

Shapes, Cuts, and Sizes Available

The collection currently features oval and triangle-cut tanzanite in both individual and parcel formats. Oval shapes dominate the listings due to their high demand in jewelry production — they retain maximum carat weight from rough and display tanzanite's characteristic violet-blue color effectively. Triangle cuts offer a geometric alternative for designers working on custom or avant-garde pieces. Calibrated sizing ensures stones fit standard settings without additional cutting.

Pricing Structure and Value

Prices in this collection range from $700 for a 5mm oval parcel deal to $2,500 for large wholesale lots of 50–100 carats. The per-carat value across these listings reflects direct-source pricing without middlemen markups. Wholesale parcel deals are structured to give buyers a lower effective per-carat cost compared to purchasing individual stones. All prices are listed in USD with no hidden fees at checkout.

How to Select the Right Tanzanite

Start by identifying your end use. If you are setting stones into standard jewelry mounts, filter by calibrated oval sizes — the 5mm and 6.5mm listings will fit most commercial settings. If you are buying for resale or wholesale, the 50–100 carat parcel deals offer the best per-carat pricing. For custom or one-of-a-kind pieces, the triangle-cut and larger individual stones give you more design flexibility. Check the listed carat weight per piece and total parcel weight before purchasing to confirm the lot meets your production volume.
