Known as the cat’s-eye effect or chatoyancy, this line appears to move as the viewing angle changes. The cabochon cut helps reveal this natural optical phenomenon rather than producing the sparkle expected from a traditionally faceted gemstone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNatural inclusions contribute to the cat’s-eye effect and are part of the stone’s individual character.
