We are  a family owned gemstone company based in Arusha, Tanzania. We specialize in the beautiful Tanzanite stone found only in one place around the world, the Mererani hills which lie less than  50km from our offices. On its discovery in 1967, this rare gem was named ‘gemstone of the 20th century’ by renowned gem experts worldwide.
