1.22 CT Natural Sphene (Titanite) – Pakistan

A distinctive 1.22 carat natural Sphene from Pakistan, featuring an attractive golden olive-green color and an elongated faceted cut that gives the stone a bold, unusual appearance.

Sphene, also known mineralogically as titanite, is particularly prized by gemstone enthusiasts for its exceptionally high dispersion—the optical property responsible for flashes of spectral color or “fire.” Its dispersion actually exceeds that of diamond, making well-cut sphene especially interesting as the stone moves under direct lighting.
