The exotic East African country of Tanzania has poured forth several gemstone riches in recent years, including tanzanite, Umba River rhodolite, Serengeti spessartite and many more, but one of the most special and more recent discoveries is Masasi blue garnet. Yes, blue garnet. Extremely rare and relatively new to the world of gemstones, blue was the last holdout in the far ranging color span of garnet. But no more. Hailing from near the Masasi district of Tanzania's Mtwara region, Masai blue garnet represents some of the finest blue color change garnet ever unearthed! It is indeed a phenomenal gem of highest quality. With rich blue color in daylight, Masasi blue garnet quickly changes to a dramatic purplish red in incandescent lighting, making one feel as if something magical just appeared before their very eyes.
