The finest Cat’s Eye stones exhibit a sharp, distinct band of light across the surface, with a rich golden, honey, or greenish-yellow body color.

Premium-quality Cat’s Eye stones are free from visible cracks or dark inclusions, ensuring the chatoyancy (cat’s eye effect) remains vivid and uninterrupted.

Cat’s Eye stones are typically cut as cabochons to enhance the light reflection creating the eye effect. The dome should be well-proportioned for the best visual impact.

Cat’s Eye gemstones are available in a range of sizes. Larger sizes with a distinct "eye" are especially valued in astrology and jewelry.
