Chrysoberyl Cat's Eye: 5 Cabochons (4-5mm); Great for Accents, Animal eyes, etc.

Chrysoberyl is best known in its "cat's eye" and alexandrite (color change) varieties. It is the original "cat's eye" gemstone, and only chrysoberyl is supposed to be indicated when the gem "cat's eye" is mentioned alone. It is one of the toughest gemstones, having good hardness and resistance to fracture. Each purchase gets you for ONE gem box containing 5 cat's eye gems from those shown in the photos. These come in handy when you need a small stone to highlight an eye in a bird, cat or other animal design. They all feature a chatoyant line that moves over the green stones as the light shifts. There are slight differences in sizes, and some are a bit irregular in cut. Some are close enough in color that they could be paired to make nice side stones for rings or other jewel designs. They make great eye stones for anthromorphic jewel designs.

NOTES: The photos were taken with the material dry under natural light. Item comes in an acrylic gem box as shown. You get ONE set of 5 cabochons when you buy, unless you order more than one set.

Shipping
Get free shipping on additional items when combining for Flat Rate delivery

• If you are purchasing multiple items within 14 days of your first buy or auction win from me, it is usually possible to combine and pay for the items together to save on shipping costs. If they all fit into one Flat Rate box, the additional items ship at no extra postage cost. If you wish to take advantage of combined shipping of multiple items bought during a 14-day period, do not pay until you have purchased your last item (or after your last auction item has closed), then send me a message requesting combined shipping. Do NOT pay prior to receiving the adjusted invoice. Because the items I sell vary widely in size, weight and fragility, some items may not be able to be shipped together, or may require a larger box. If you are bidding multiple bulky or fragile items, please provide me with your zip or postal code and ask me for an estimate of the cost. After your request, a new invoice will be issued with the postage adjusted.
• Notes:
  Once you make a payment, I typically arrange shipping within 24 hours and it will no longer be possible to combine additional items. Before paying, please wait until your last item has closed, then request an invoice (on the payment screen, click "Request amount").
