Emerald Cats Eye Stone

Emerald cat’s eye is an exquisitely rare gemstone belonging to the beryl family and shares the same composition as emeralds but has a smooth, glowing band, which gives it the name ‘cat’s eye.’ Compared to regular emeralds, emerald cat’s eye is more sought after due to its exceptional parallel inclusion, which displays luminous stripes that shift across the surface like the eyeball of a cat.

Manufacturers tend to use emerald cat’s eyes as highlights on pendants, rings and jewellery pieces due to their unique shine as well as their unparalleled eyesight-enhancing rewards.
