You know, if that whole Groundhog Day thing happens, we would definitely be a-ok reliving this post and seeing this insanely beautiful amethyst day after day. 💜Seems pretty fitting for February too. 😉 #gemsforchange #ethicalgems #amethyst #february #birthstone #februarybabies #groundhogday #ptgems #idazzle #anzagems

Channeling the methodical rhythm of this hidden zircon miner as we settle back in to the week. We're always inspired by the hard work done in the mines day in and day out. Happy #miningmonday!#gemsforchange #straighttothesource #ethicalgems #gemstonemining #mining #zircon #tanzania #anzatravels #anzagems

We're swimming in rough green garnets! That's right #januarybabies, garnets aren't only red! The glorious grossular green is only one of the many garnet varietals unearthed in East Africa! These are going to make some beautiful ANZA pure pieces. 😉 We can't wait! #gemsforchange #roughgems #ethicalgems #grossular #garnet #green #greengarnet #kenya #tanzania #anzapure #anzagems #idazzle

Our #yearofgratitude continues with a brand new ANZA Gems item: a promise in a box! This is far more than an $89 rough garnet in an @anzagems branded package. The handmade pouch, crafted of traditional Maasai shuka fabric and a beaded motif, supports the Tanzanian women who make them. The 1-2 gram (5-7 carat) natural red rough garnet could be faceted or enjoyed as a talisman, and supports the artisanal miners in Kenya who found it. And most importantly, $50 from each purchase will go directly towards a school lunch program for a Tanzanian primary school. Each purchase feeds 5 students for a month. We just visited this school and saw the incredible effect of a hot nutritious lunch, improving their lives and test scores. We’re calling it ANZA Hope and you can click on the link in bio to purchase. Standard USPS shipping included. You can give the gift of Hope this holiday. #allweneedislove #anzahope #anzagems #gemsforchange #giftsthatgiveback #roughgarnet #roughgems #jewelrygift #uniquegift #giftideas #christmasgift #holidaygift

We love #transformationtuesday!! Especially when it doubles as an opportunity to announce our latest designer collaboration - @marlaaaron! We could not be more excited or honored to be working with Marla! And check out this incredible white gold box charm with rough Kenyan tsavorite crashing through the lid! Scroll through to see the rough gemstones that inspired Marla to create this piece. It's not too hard to see why she was inspired. #thatcolor #thatcrystalshape #newjewelry #gemsforchange #designercollaboration #tsavorite #roughgems #gemstones #whitegold #kenya #charmedbox #marlaaaronjewelry #marlaaaroncustom #anzagems #idazzle 📷:@marlaaaron

We love this pink sapphire ring from our collaboration with @jenniferdawesdesign! This 2.33 carat unheated Umba sapphire is so uniquely beautiful. The imperfections in this sapphire make it truly beautiful and the finished piece incredibly special. @jenniferdawesdesign outdid herself with this one! #transformationtuesday #perfectlyimperfect #beautifulimperfection #gemsforchange #sapphire #pink #diamonds #ring #gold #futureheirloom #roughgems #facetedgems #designerjewelry #oneofakind #custom #jenniferdawesdesign #anzagems #giftsthatgiveback
