      Tax included

      This pair offers a chance to explore titanite, also known as sphene, in two complementary forms: a natural crystal and a cut stone, both from Pakistan. The crystallized specimen allows you to appreciate the mineral’s natural morphology, while the cut gem reveals the appearance it can take on after faceting. An original and educational combination that bridges the gap between mineralogy and gemology.

      Crystallized sphene: 1.2 × 1 cm
      Cut gemstone: 4 mm in diameter.
      The set is presented in a small 3.4 cm Perky box, included.

      Highlights of this set:

      - A set combining a natural crystal and a cut gemstone of the same mineral.
      - Allows for a direct comparison between the natural form and the faceted appearance of titanite.
      - Shared origin: Pakistan.
      - Original and educational presentation, suitable for both collectors and gemstone enthusiasts.
      - Set curated by us.

      For your information:

      Sphen is the old name for titanite, which is still widely used in the gem trade and among collectors.

      Titanite is prized in gemology for its remarkable optical properties, particularly its high birefringence and high refractive index. When it is sufficiently transparent and of suitable quality, it can be cut into a gemstone to highlight its luster and optical properties.

      Pakistan is among the countries that have yielded high-quality collector’s-grade titanite. Titanite is found there in various geological settings, with crystals sometimes well-developed enough to be preserved as mineralogical specimens.
