An outstanding example of this classic gem material. There is such a range of quality in these it is startling - transparency, clarity, strength of the chatoyancy, polish - all of these must come together to raise a stone above the fray. This gem is a treat - the gem is fully transparent, with a complete, bright and (outstanding!) sharp eye that is both perfectly centered and fully mobile. The transparency of the stone deserves special mention - even the best stones on the market today are often 'milky' and less than fully transparent. This one has all that and more - no asymmetries or fractures whatsoever. Moreover, the gem does the visual tricks that marks a great cat’s eye - opening and closing of the eye and a strong milk and honey effect.
