Description
A fully terminated gem quality Titanite( also known as Sphene) from the Campo do Boa Mine, Capelhina, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Due to its trichroic inner rainbow and high diffraction (higher than a diamond) rate it has been dubbed "The Dragon Finger". The vibrant Green Flame is said to be found within this magnificent crystal. This is the flame of growth and development as well as the flame of childlike awe and wonder. The color saturation is great with the color changing from a tropical green to a sunny yellow. Also there are awesome hues of an internal rainbow that I have tried to get photographs of but fail to do it justice. There is some minor chipping towards the termination and some contact on the base. All and all the specimen is in good condition. This is a special crystal.3.5 cm x 1.4 cm x 1 cm
