Is tanzanite durable enough for everyday wear?

Tanzanite ranks about 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, softer than sapphire or diamond. It is fine for regular wear with care, but take the pendant off for gardening, gym sessions and housework, and store it separately from harder stones.

What size is the pendant and chain?

The chain is 18 inches, which rests around the collarbone. The pendant is a small accent piece rather than a large statement drop, so check the listed dimensions if size matters to you.

Is the diamond a real diamond?

The listing describes a diamond accent, meaning a small genuine diamond used as a decorative highlight. It is not a center stone, so expect a subtle sparkle rather than a prominent diamond.

Will the tanzanite color match the photos?

Tanzanite shifts between violet and blue depending on the light, and stones vary. Some owners report a lighter shade than the photos showed, so treat the images as a guide rather than an exact match.

How should I clean it?

Use lukewarm water with a drop of mild soap and a soft brush, then dry with a lint-free cloth. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and steam, which can damage tanzanite.

It works well as a December birthstone gift or a first tanzanite piece. Buyers who gave it say it presented nicely, though some recipients noted the stone is on the small side.

About the Macy's Tanzanite & Diamond Accent 18" Pendant Necklace in Sterling Silver

A sterling silver pendant necklace from Macy's set with tanzanite and a diamond accent on an 18-inch chain. Tanzanite is the draw here: a violet-blue gemstone found in only one place on earth, which gives this piece a color most silver pendants cannot match. The diamond accent is small and decorative rather than a focal stone, so buyers should expect sparkle, not a statement diamond. It suits someone who wants a distinctive colored-stone pendant for everyday or occasion wear and does not need a large carat weight.
