2.90 Ct. Sphene (Titanite) from Madagascar

As a representative of The Natural Gemstone Company, I am pleased to present a truly exceptional stone that speaks to connoisseurs who seek rarity and singular beauty. This transparent, Other certified greenish yellow sphene also known as titanite weighs 2.90 carat and carries a trillion shape that measures 8.27 x 8.81 x 5.43 mm, a size and presence that are uncommon for this species. The hue reads as a vibrant yellowish green with intense color intensity, and the clarity is graded very slightly included when evaluated at eye level. The polish is excellent, and there is no enhancement, so what you receive is the unaltered, natural character of a Madagascan origin gem. Stones of this weight and quality are seldom available, and owning this piece places you among a select group who appreciate the extraordinary optical phenomena that sphene displays, paired with the refined geometry of a masterful cut.

The trillion cut chosen for this sphene was selected to amplify everything that makes titanite remarkable, and it does so in ways that are both technical and deeply aesthetic. The triangular pavilion and carefully calibrated crown facets work together to capture and refract light with a concentration and liveliness that round cuts cannot replicate. The facets act as precise mirrors that both brighten the core of the gem and produce a network of scintillating flashes across the surface, while the acute angles of the trillion shape encourage vivid directional light play. Sphene is known for strong dispersion and a notable degree of birefringence, properties that create a kaleidoscope of color when light enters the stone. The trillion geometry turns that innate dispersion into dramatic, clean flashes of fire, while the facet layout and excellent polish maintain crisp color separation so each flash reads as a jewel like display of greens, golds, and warm yellow tones that shift with movement and light source.

Clarity and polish are essential to unlocking sphenes optical potential, and this gem was evaluated and finished to preserve and showcase its natural attributes. The very slightly included grade at eye level indicates that inclusions are minor and do not interrupt the gemlike window through which light travels and separates into color. The excellent polish ensures that every facet junction is sharp and true, reducing light leakage and enhancing return, so the gem appears lively from the table and along the crown. Because there is no enhancement, the intense color and natural pleochroism are genuine, a direct gift from the Madagascan terrain where this specimen was sourced. Madagascar remains a storied provenance for fine titanite, and a 2.90 carat stone with such concentrated color and shape is rare enough to command bespoke consideration for a custom setting that will honor its geometry and optical drama.
