Cat’s Eye Apatite is not terribly uncommon, but we do occasionally see some interesting colors that are less frequently encountered. As opposed to the greenish golds and deep blues that we usually see, this stone is a really fine almost ‘denim’ color. In combination with a slightly diffuse eye the stone looks almost like a cat’s eye Aquamarine. The eye is perhaps a bit more distinct that we have captured here, it is quite nice and looks great in this size and color. Not many gems at $10 per carat in this market.
