The most famous and valuable cat's eye gemstone is chrysoberyl cat's eye. In fact when the term cat's eye is used alone in the gem trade, it always refers to chrysoberyl cat's eye. All other types of cat's eye gems require an additional varietal designation, such as cat's eye apatite. Chrysoberyl cat's eye is so highly regarded due to its excellent hardness (8.5 on the Mohs scale), superb luster and remarkably sharp cat's eye effect.

I have purchased several times from GemSelect and am always pleased with the stones. The information on the site about each stone is thorough. I don't have to worry about fake stones from them and the prices are quite reasonable. I love the new cards provided for each stone. I would highly recommend them.

Gem Select is the source of moderately priced gems They should consider to have a section for outstanding gems to compete more directly with AJS gems.

I order from GemSelect when I want quality gems, complete disclosure, easy ordering and fast delivery. They are 100% reliable. They also have the largest selection of gemstones I know, including all colors, shapes and sizes in both faceted gems and cabochons. Their pearls are gorgeous and again, you know what you are getting. I would highly recommend GemSelect for your gemstone and pearl purchases.

I love Gemselect and have ordered from them many times. I have always been extremely happy with my purchases. In fact, I got a shipment this week and I decided to buy almost the identical set that I received this week, and that's what this purchase is!
