Sphene (Titanite) Exotic Gemstone Ring 4.05 Carats, Flashy & Fragile & Rare
About the Item
This gorgeous one-of-a-kind ring features a rare gem known by two names: sphene or titanite. From a 3/4 angle in low light, it looks like the finest peridot gem. But add some light and it's fire rivals the finest diamond. Move your hand even the slightest and behold a gemstone so rare you've likely never heard of it; wildly vivid chartreuse gemstone with nearly the of a diamond. Flashing every color -even the colors between the colors- one name was not enough for this stone so it has two: sphene and titanite. It's a favorite among gem collectors because of its numerous unique properties but also because it's just so incredibly beautiful and dynamic; the stone is always *doing* something. Sparkling, flashing every intense color of the spectrum.
It's extremely rare to find a sphene of this collector-grade quality set into a piece of jewelry, which makes this ring quite the treasure. The 14k white gold setting has delicately pierced shoulders subtly suggestive of hearts and is set with tiny, sparkly white diamonds totaling approximately .18 carats.
If the gemological name titanite sounds more like a metal than a gem, that's because titanite contains titanium -and even several rare earth elements.
Household dust is mostly quartz. And quartz is a tough mineral that will scratch a lot of things, including this gem. You'll want to be mindful of where and how you wear this dazzling ring. This is not a ring you wear every day, it's your special, "What is that gemstone???" center-of-attention ring.
It's marked for purity and has its maker's hallmark. Currently a size 6 1/4, the ring rises approximately 6.30 mm from the top of the finger.
Your jeweler could resize this ring with a laser welder if you need a different size.
