The chatoyance is magnificent. What a glorious piece! Reminds me of the shape of a motorcycle gas tank...lol...

That's a beauty Donnie! I am working on a blue one right now but it is far from finished. I may have to go out there and work it now after seeing how well yours turned out! Fran

It is tough to get good pictures that show chatoyance well but i think you did very good. That piece looks impeccable and really captured the flare well. And by the previous posts i see that Krista is going to wrap it which is like mixing gold and diamonds, the best of both worlds. Can't wait to see the finished product.
One question about the material, is this blue cats eye also sometimes called "Hawks eye" or is there a difference between them?
Thanks for sharing.

Sampson, here is a link to my website where I have a little bit of collected information about stones. The link to Tiger Eye and its different forms is here: www.zorias.com/#!stones/vstc2=tiger-eye I hope that clears things up Krista
