The cat's eye effect, known as chatoyancy, is a rare optical phenomenon that is more commonly associated with other gemstones like chrysoberyl, sapphire, tourmaline, and apatite. In the case of cat's eye emeralds, this effect is achieved through numerous microscopic parallel narrow tubes within the stone. When the emerald is cut into a cabochon shape (smooth, rounded, and polished, without facets), these tubes reflect light, creating the striking cat's eye appearance.
