Emerald-Cut Tanzanite Contemporary Engagement Rings by Ji Hwang

Engagement rings have been the ultimate symbol of love for thousands of years. In ancient Egypt, they wore rings on the third finger of the left hand to mark where the "vein of love" went directly to the heart, starting a tradition that continues today. When pledging your love with a unique engagement ring, you are starting your own family tradition. The most important value factor to consider when shopping for emerald-cut tanzanite contemporary engagement rings is the quality of the center stone. Gemvara hand-selects top quality conflict-free gems that are expertly cut for maximum beauty. Tanzanite inspires with velvety color. Emerald cuts have large planes of brilliance rather than the confetti sparkles of brilliant-cut gemstones. Our unrivalled selection of engagement rings by Jessica Behzad, Ji Hwang, Martha Gomez Gutierrez, and other talented jewelry designers means you can find an engagement ring that perfectly symbolizes your relationship. Clean emerald-cut tanzanite contemporary engagement rings with mild dish soap: use a soft brush where dust collects. When taking off your engagement ring, don't pull on the gemstone: this won't damage the gem but it can, over time, stretch the metal that holds it in place, making the setting less secure. Be careful when removing your ring to wash your hands. Don't leave it on the rim of a sink where it can slip down the drain! Gemvara's fine quality emerald-cut tanzanite contemporary engagement rings are designed to be passed down for generations to come, crafted by hand in the United States.

Her work reveals nature's subtle aesthetic, capturing the beauty of its form, the simplicity of its design, and the vitality of its colors without embellishment. She often finds that by simplifying, she often can best reflect the essence of nature. A classically trained jewelry artist educated at Parsons School of Design and Pratt Institute in New York City, Ji's work is instantly recognizable to jewelry connoisseurs.

When shopping for tanzanite jewelry, color and quality are the most important value factors: the more vivid, pure, velvety, and saturated the blue, the more valuable the tanzanite. The secret to tanzanite's mesmerizing color is trichoism, which means the crystals of tanzanite are three different colors when seen from different directions. This happens when the blue and purple in the tanzanite mesh together in the inner landscape of the gem as it moves and catches the light. Gemvara's tanzanite is the best possible color for its size, more blue than purple. Tanzanite is a modern gem, discovered in 1969 and named by Tiffany & Co. Supremely rare it is found in only one place in the world: a five-square mile area in Merelani, Tanzania near the feet of majestic Kilimanjaro. Tanzanite is a December birthstone and the gem of the 24th anniversary. All Gemvara jewelry is made to order, which ensures that a premium-quality tanzanite will be hand-selected to perfectly suit your design. Crafted in the United States, Gemvara's fine tanzanite jewelry is precious and personal, surely to be passed down for generations to come.
