Sphene, also known as titanite, is a striking and lesser-known gemstone prized for its incredible brilliance and dispersion, often exhibiting fiery flashes of color, akin to a diamond's sparkle. The name "sphene" comes from the Greek word "sphenos," meaning wedge, due to the stone's characteristic wedge-shaped crystals. First discovered in the 18th century, sphene was initially mistaken for other gemstones, but its unique optical properties—particularly its high dispersion—soon caught the attention of gem enthusiasts. What sets sphene apart is its exceptional fire, surpassing even diamonds in its ability to split light into a spectrum of colors. The gemstone ranges in color from green to yellow, brown, and even reddish hues, depending on its composition. Due to its relative softness (around 5-5.5 on the Mohs scale), sphene requires careful handling in jewelry. To care for sphene, avoid exposing it to hard knocks or harsh chemicals that could cause scratches or dull its brilliance. Clean sphene with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth, and store it separately from other gemstones to prevent damage. Regularly inspect sphene jewelry to ensure settings are secure, as the stone’s brittleness can make it prone to chipping.
Jewelry and gemstones do not always look like what’s on your screen. Different screen resolutions and pixelization may skew the colors of certain stones and metals. This is especially true for stones like opals, fire agate, and labradorite. Although we make the best attempt to show off the product exactly as it is in person, technology doesn’t always allow this. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out and we will do our best to help.
