Why buy Sphene Gemstones?

Sphene and sphene crystals, also known as titanite, is a brilliant yellowish-green, green or brown gemstone of high luster, unique color shades and, with brilliant cut, an intensive fire that can compete with diamond. While always in demand, sphene has been a rare gem on the market. New deposits have increased market quantities.

Sphene for Sale: Where to Buy

Looking for loose Sphene gemstones for your collection or a special piece of jewelry? You have come to the right place, we stock sphene in many shapes, colors, and sizes.

What are some of the properties of Sphene Gemstones?

Sphene is named from the Greek word for wedge, because of its typical wedge shaped crystal habit. The mineralogical name "Titanite" derives from its titanium contents. Sphene is strongly pleochroic, displaying at least three colors (colorless, greenish-yellow, reddish) when looked at from different angles.

Titanite: The Scientific Perspective

Natural sphene is scientifically known as Titanite, named after its titanium content.

Here's what makes it unique:

Composition: Primarily composed of calcium titanium silicate, Titanite's chemical formula is CaTiSiO5.
Mohs Hardness: With a hardness rating of 5 to 5.5 on the Mohs scale, the Sphene gemstone requires careful handling to prevent scratching.
Optical Properties: Titanite is known for its strong pleochroism and high dispersion, creating vivid displays of color.

Where to use Sphene, is it good for jewelry?

With a low hardness rating of 5 -5.5, sphene is a soft gemstone that needs care and qualifies best only for pendants, earrings or brooches. Sphene color can be changed to red or orange through heating.

Chrome Sphene: A Vivid Fusion of Color and Brilliance!

Chrome Sphene, a distinctive variant of the classic Sphene or Titanite gemstone, is known for its mesmerizing green hues. The presence of chromium in the mineral composition imparts this vibrant color, setting it apart from other forms of Sphene. Renowned for its remarkable brilliance and strong pleochroism, Chrome Sphene is a sought-after gem for collectors and jewelry enthusiasts alike. Its dazzling appearance, coupled with its rarity, makes it a prized possession in the world of gemstones.

So many gorgeous stones! The only "complaint" I have is it's difficult to visualize sizes in mm. Perhaps some way to compare in inches?It has been a long time since I bought stones from Gem select, but the process wasn't too difficult.

My only complaint is that there are so many beautiful and affordable stones that I get distracted from what I planned to order.

I really enjoy browsing through GemSelect. The selection is always marvelous and I love how detailed everything is described. The only thing I noticed is that when browsing through my phone, the videos of the gems do not load. If there were more videos of the gems, that would be amazing, though I understand that is a lot of work on GemSelect's part! Checking out is also very fast and easy, and I love that the return policy is very good, though I hope I don't have to use it anytime soon.

The website is well organized and works fast forward and back. Plenty of filters. Each gem is described in detail and you receive the one pictured. Gem material info and sources available. I would like to see more specifics on sources besides country- at least region or state and in the US with Turquiose which mine. Thanks!

I have actually done business with them before and was quite satisfied with them then.My Mother collected turtle items and when I saw the Mother of Pearl turtle...I just thought of her and decided to buy it. It's even tinier than I thought, but so adorable!The gemstones I bought are for jewelry for my daughter's birthday.

over the experience was similar to other sites i have used. The only real note I have is the checkout experience was tedious and discriminatory, i wouldn't accept visa gift cards, which not only have guaranteed funds but help protect from misuse of personal information, but would not accept my visa b/c it is a prepaid card. I don't have bank account and I have been using the prepaid card for years without issue so this was disappointing to me. I feel safer using reputable gem sites rather than amazon or ebay (I have been sold fake gems with fake certs on both), but not being able to use my own valid legitimate funds and having to find a friend to buy for me b/c I use a non-bank card like 40% of the country is insulting.
