These exquisite 9ct white gold earrings showcase the mesmerising beauty of tanzanite, one of the world's rarest and most sought-after gemstones. Each earring features a stunning pear-shaped tanzanite totalling 1.20 carats, displaying the stone's signature velvety blue-violet hue that seems to shift and dance with every movement. The tanzanites are embraced by a delicate halo of brilliant-cut diamonds, creating a captivating contrast that enhances the depth and luminosity of the centre stones.
Tanzanite is found in only one place on Earth — the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania — making these earrings truly special. The elegant pear shape, also known as a teardrop cut, combines the brilliance of a round cut with the elongating effect of a marquise, creating a sophisticated silhouette that flatters every face shape. The secure post-and-butterfly fittings ensure comfortable all-day wear, whether you're attending a formal celebration or adding a touch of luxury to your everyday style.

FAQ
Q: What makes tanzanite so special?
A: Tanzanite is one of the rarest gemstones in the world, found only in a small area near Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. It displays a remarkable colour-changing property, showing blue, violet, and burgundy hues depending on the lighting and viewing angle. It's approximately 1,000 times rarer than diamonds, making these earrings a truly unique treasure.
Q: Can I wear these earrings every day?
A: While tanzanite is a durable gemstone, it rates 6.5-7 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it suitable for regular wear with reasonable care. We recommend removing your earrings during vigorous activities, sports, or heavy manual work to protect the stones from impact. With proper care, these earrings will remain beautiful for a lifetime.
Q: How should I clean my tanzanite earrings?
A: Clean your tanzanite earrings gently using warm water, mild soap, and a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and steam cleaning, as tanzanite can be sensitive to sudden temperature changes. For professional cleaning and inspection, visit our Mall of the South boutique.
Q: Are the diamonds natural?
A: Yes, the accent diamonds in the halo setting are natural diamonds. They are carefully selected to complement the tanzanite centre stones and add brilliant sparkle to the design.
Q: What is 9ct white gold?
A: 9ct white gold contains 37.5% pure gold alloyed with other white metals such as palladium, silver, and zinc. It offers excellent durability and a beautiful silvery-white finish that complements the cool tones of tanzanite perfectly. The lower gold content makes it more affordable than 18ct gold while maintaining quality and beauty.
Q: Do these earrings come with a certificate?
A: These earrings come with a Cassim & Co. receipt confirming the specifications. If you require gemstone certification for insurance purposes, please speak with our team at the time of purchase, and we can arrange independent certification at an additional cost.
Q: Can I view these earrings in person before purchasing?
A: Absolutely! We encourage you to visit our boutique at Mall of the South in Johannesburg to see these stunning tanzanite earrings in person. Our knowledgeable staff will be delighted to show you the piece and answer any questions. Alternatively, we offer secure nationwide delivery if you prefer to shop online.
