Sphene is a remarkably beautiful gemstone that can show multiple colors simultaneously. It is also known as Titanite because of its high titanium content.
Notable Qualities
Sphene is a thrice refractive and highly pleochroic gemstone, which means it appears to be a different color depending on the viewing angle. These stunning examples from Pakistan lead people to make many colorful descriptions. For example, some say they look like “dragon’s eyes.”
