What Makes This Gemstone Relevant
Sphene’s dispersion is higher than diamond’s, so even a one carat green titanite sphene throws flashes of color that most green stones don’t. Round is the most familiar cut for a ring or pendant, and the stone is 5 mm deep against a 7 x 6 mm face. For a slightly smaller round, see our 0.95 CT round cut sphene. Our guide on gemstone cuts explained compares round with the other shapes, and the full range is in the Sphene Gemstones collection.
Buying Considerations
A round stone has no corners or point to chip, which makes it the easiest shape to set. Sphene is still softer than many ring stones, so a bezel, or a pendant or earrings, will treat it better than hard daily wear on an exposed ring. If this is your first loose stone, our guide to buying loose gemstones online without getting scammed is a useful checklist. Ships economy.
