Just 10 days before Christmas!

Chrysoberyl is a hard, tough and durable gem. Although lacking the fire of other gemstones, chrysoberyl gems are very valuable. Most chrysoberyl is yellow, and some are brown or green. An expensive form of chrysoberyl is the unusual cat's eye variety. When polished, these stone exhibit a narrow band of concentrated light along the width of the gem. This effect, know as the cat's eye effect, is caused by inclusions of fine, slender parallel mineral fibers in the gem. Many other gems also exhibit a cat's eye effect, but only chrysoberyl's cat's eye has the privilege of having that name alone.
