8.33 ct Green Sphene - Oval

At 8.33 carats, this sphene from Madagascar carries its green color through an oval cut, measuring 14.2 x 10.9 x 7.2 mm.

Sphene has dispersion higher than diamond, so a well-cut stone throws more fire than almost any other gemstone. Madagascar has produced an unusually wide range of gem species since the mid 1990s. It carries no treatment of any kind, so the color you see is the color that came out of the ground.

A single natural gemstone with no duplicate behind it; once it is set or collected, there is no other. It will outlast everyone who owns it, which is most of what an heirloom really is. Hand-selected and filmed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
