A new to me Vintage cats-eye Chrysoberyl ring

[Pumpkin Sparkles]

Lately I’ve been drawn to more pastel colors and I love cabbed gemstones (one of my weaknesses).
I’ve been collecting green gemstones lately and came across this beautiful cats eye chrysoberyl.
I was a bit weary since I know there is actinolite which is also a similar color but tested and confirmed chrysoberyl, the jeweler called it a Milky apple green (not taking his word for it) but it’s a beautiful shade of green that displays milk and honey at times.

It truly is, thank you. It was also a milestone gift from my SO, gives a bit more meaning, and it gives me a reason to go outside lol!

It is so unique! The color is gorgeous in itself, but the cats eye is just amazing! What a great find!

Thank you!
No, not a big fan of sports.. only if my kids are playing. lol
Green is just one of my favorite colors, just not very many hardy gemstones that come in that color that I trust myself with, Haha.

That is lovely -- well done!

Feel like I need some fruit salad this morning for some reason.
