Extraordinary pleochroism makes the infinite blues and violet shades of tanzanite so lustrous. Tanzanite is trichroic, displaying blue, purple, and yellow in varied directions of light whilst holding a rich blue body colour.
The birthstone for December and a precious jewel for meditation, this gem is a reminder of wintery moonlit nights. But this intense colour, that Cassandra so loves to design with, comes at a price - the stones are fragile and should be worn with great care.
All Cassandra Goad Jewellery is designed and made in our workshops in London.
Ever in search of the unusual and rare, Cassandra travels the world to source beautiful gemstones, either in the rough or cut form.
The craftsman works as an artist recreating the design in metal. The jewel is then mounted, assayed, polished and set.
