Cat's-Eye Chrysoberyl — 4.15 ct

Cat's-Eye Chrysoberyl

4.15 ct · 9.02 × 7.88 × 5.61 mm · Sri Lanka

A cabochon is judged on the eye: how sharp it is, how centred, and whether it opens and closes cleanly as the stone turns. The dome here is slightly higher than average, which tightens the eye at the cost of a little spread.
