Cat's Eye Dice

Cat's eye gems, also known as chrysoberyl, are formed deep within the Earth under specific geological conditions. They originate from mineral deposits that undergo significant heat and pressure over millions of years. The unique optical phenomenon known as chatoyancy, which results in the striking cat's eye effect, occurs when light reflects off inclusions or fibrous materials within the stone. This reflection creates a thin band of light that appears to glide across the gem's surface, reminiscent of a cat's slit pupil. The color of cat's eye gems can vary, with shades ranging from greenish-yellow to brown. After being mined, these gems are cut and polished to enhance their luster and the fascinating play of light, making them highly sought after in the world of jewelry. Each stone is unique, showcasing the natural beauty and mysteries that form deep within our planet.
