Description

  • Approximate beads per strand: 120
  • What is it: Cat's Eye is highly polished Chrysoberyl, making it resemble a "cat's eye." Chrysoberyl is the gemstone that produces the most distinct "cat's eye" effect (also known as chatoyance). If a person uses the name "cat's-eye" without the name of another gemstone (for example, "cat's-eye moonstone"), then they are most likely referring to chrysoberyl.
  • History: The name chrysoberyl comes from the Greek words - "chrysos," meaning golden, and "beryllos," which refers to its beryllium. Chrysoberyl has been a highly valued stone for thousands of years. In Asia, it was believed to provide the wearer with protection from the evil eye.
  • Metaphysical Properties: Chrysoberyl Cat's Eye is believed to transform negative thoughts into positive energy and bring happiness, serenity, and confidence.
  • Because gemstones are natural materials, appearances may vary from bead to bead
