The most succesful example of a fine blue Apatite cat’s eye that we have ever run across. Firstly, the cut and proportions are good, with an eye that is complete and fully mobile. Secondly, and most crucially, the color is exquisite; a bright robins-egg blue color that is actually quite rare. Darker tones are most common and, as it happens, less striking than the present example. A one-off gem from an old collection. Rare and fine.
