About the Item

Loose Titanite Weight: 1.30 Carats Dimension: 7.3 x 5.4 x 3.7 Mm Origin: Warsak Pakistan Shape: Oval Treatment: Non Certificate: On Demand Sphene, also known as titanite, is a remarkable and lesser-known gemstone that has garnered a growing appreciation among collectors and jewelry enthusiasts in recent years. This gemstone is prized for its impressive dispersion, which gives it the ability to disperse light into a vivid display of colors, similar to the renowned fire of a diamond. Sphene's name is derived from the Greek word "sphenos," which means wedge, owing to its wedge-shaped crystal structure. The mineral titanite, from which sphene is formed, contains titanium, calcium, and various other elements. It is typically found in metamorphic rocks and can exhibit a range of colors, including green, brown, yellow, and even black. However, the most sought-after sphene gemstones are those with a green or yellow hue. One of the most remarkable features of sphene is its exceptional dispersion, often referred to as "fire." This dispersion is a measure of a gem's ability to break down white light into its spectral colors. Sphene's fire is even more striking than that of a diamond, making it a captivating gem for those who appreciate vibrant and colorful displays in their jewelry. Sphene gemstones are cut into a variety of shapes, including rounds, ovals, and cushions, to maximize their fire and brilliance. These gemstones are frequently used in jewelry, such as rings and earrings, and can make a stunning focal point in any design. The primary sources of sphene include locations like Madagascar, Brazil, Sri Lanka, and Pakistan. Madagascar, in particular, is renowned for producing some of the finest green sphene gemstones. Sphene has gained popularity due to its unique dispersion, but its relative rarity compared to other gemstones like diamonds or sapphires has also contributed to its desirability. Its ability to create a dazzling display of spectral colors in the right lighting conditions makes it a captivating addition to any jewelry collection. In summary, sphene, or titanite, is a remarkable gemstone known for its exceptional dispersion, which results in a stunning display of spectral colors. Its unique properties and relative rarity have made it increasingly popular among jewelry enthusiasts, offering a distinctive and captivating option for those seeking the brilliance of fire in their gemstone jewelry.
