Cat eye stones can be quite valuable, particularly when they are natural and display a sharp, centered "cat's eye" effect known as chatoyancy. Their worth is influenced by factors such as gemstone type (like chrysoberyl), intensity and color of the eye, clarity, size, and overall craftsmanship. Synthetic, treated, or poorly defined cat eye stones generally have significantly less value in the gemstone market.
