Tanzanite Look Alike Czochralski Pulled Forsterite Octagon Radiant Cut

Our material was produced especially for jewelry needs with the specific chromium concentration which makes this material look very similar to the genuine Tanzanite, and creates the similar color change effect. This is the best Tanzanite imitation. Actually the natural Forsterite is the mineral of Olivine group.
