Sphene, or titanite, is a rare gemstone beloved by collectors for having a luster just below diamond's and a colorful sparkle exceeding diamond’s. That said, is sphene a precious stone? No, sphene is a semi-precious gemstone.
What color is sphene? It’s typically bright yellow-green but can range from colorless all the way to black. But, turn the stone under light and you'll see different colors — with a twinkling rainbow sparkle to match!
Already thinking of checking out sphene jewelry? Come along and discover sphene gemstone meanings, healing powers, prices, and more!
Sphene is a titanium-rich variety of the mineral titanite and the only variety used for gemstones. That’s right, titanite isn’t just a synonym, it’s also a mineral family.
Besides gems, what is sphene used for? Titanite may be mined as a titanium dioxide ore for pigments.
Scientists also use titanites as geochronometers (tools for measuring geological history via radioactive decay) and thermobarometers (minerals for measuring the pressure and temperature during rock formation).
Wait, is sphene radioactive? Mildly yes. Fashioned or polished pieces are safe, while rough specimens are safe for short periods.
Sphene gems are more affordable alternatives for peridot. Therefore, you can use sphene as an August birthstone or 16th wedding anniversary gemstone in peridot’s place. Sphene itself is a zodiac stone for Libra, Sagittarius, and Taurus.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a person is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on behalf of the bidder, incrementally increasing the bid up to the maximum to maintain their position as the highest bidder.
When there is an icon indicating 'Automatic Bid', it means our system is actively placing bids for the bidder based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if bidders are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the bidders maximum limit.
