Victorian 18ct Gold Ring set with a Large Cat’s Eye Chrysoberyl

779X
88 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

An unusual 18ct gold ring that was made circa 1880-1900. It has been set with a large oval cabochon cat’s eye chrysoberyl which has a definite white and green edged line across the middle. Natural cat’s eye chrysoberyl is an expensive stone and is a stone of good fortune. It is said to bring serenity and happiness, along with optimism and generosity, creativity and kindness. It is also a stone of protection against the evil eye!

A wonderful ring to wear.
