Why Tanzanite and Opal Mark 24 Years of Marriage
Tanzanite forms in one location on Earth: the Merelani Hills of northern Tanzania. First discovered in 1967, this blue-violet stone rates 6 to 7 on the Mohs hardness scale. The single-source origin makes tanzanite rarer than diamonds by some geological measures. Earrings set with tanzanite carry weight for a 24th anniversary because the stone itself took millions of years to form under specific conditions of heat and pressure. Opal offers an alternative with equal symbolic depth. Australian opals display a play of color caused by silica spheres diffracting light. Ethiopian opals, more recent to the market, show similar fire at lower price points. Opal rates 5.5 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale, softer than tanzanite but suitable for earrings that avoid daily impact. Both stones arrive set in solid .925 sterling silver, the metal that marks the 25th anniversary one year ahead. SilverRush Style has shipped jewelry from our US warehouse since 2005.
