Excited to share this small but powerful "paraiba" blue cat's eye apatite! I stumbled upon this gem after seeing a similar stone in The Gem Trader drop this month. I decided I actually preferred the color on mine, even though it was small, and I don't regret my choice at all! I was very pleasantly surprised with the quality of the stone, and especially the vividness of the color, which isn't quite coming across in my photos. The vendor did a better job capturing the color, but a worse job on the clarity - the stone just needed a good rub and now it's completely eye-clean. I've never seen this bright blue color in a cat's eye apatite before, and feel it's especially fitting as I have a baby boy on the way.
