Product Description
Elegant movement and luminous depth define this cluster pendant. Crafted with precision, it features Indian Cat’s Eye Alexandrite cabochons arranged in a graceful marquise-inspired formation. Each 4x3mm oval displays a distinct chatoyant band and shifts color from green to red depending on the light — a hallmark of natural Alexandrite’s optical magic.
Set in solid 925 sterling silver and enhanced with 18k yellow gold accents against a rhodium-finished base, this pendant balances warmth and brilliance. Suspended from an adjustable sterling silver chain with lobster clasp, it’s a refined yet eye-catching piece that transitions effortlessly from natural daylight shimmer to evening glow.
Please note: Cat’s-eye alexandrite is among the rarest combinations in the gem world—uniting two separate optical phenomena in a single natural stone: color change and chatoyancy. Each piece displays a silvery line of reflected light that moves across the surface as it’s rotated, known as the cat’s-eye effect. This luminous band appears sharpest under a single focused light source, yet it’s extremely difficult to photograph accurately.
Alexandrite’s hue itself also varies with lighting—typically appearing green to bluish-green in daylight and shifting toward red or purple tones under incandescent light. Photos are representative of our current selection; each piece will feature comparable quality, color range, and cat’s-eye definition. Lighting conditions and screen calibration can alter how these effects appear on camera. In person, expect a richer body color, a more defined cat’s-eye line, and the dynamic color play that makes cat’s-eye alexandrite so exceptionally rare.
