Vintage Japanese Cat-Eye Cabochon Crystal Pin | Celadon Glow
Video at the end

vintage Japanese pin centred by a soft yellow-green cat-eye cabochon, distinctive silky band of light that glides across the domed surface as it moves.

• Story: Cat-eye jewellery has long fascinated gem lovers for its natural chatoyancy — an optical phenomenon created by fine internal fibres reflecting light into a luminous “eye”. The effect gives even a modest-sized stone an almost talismanic presence.

• Rare Unusual pale celadon/ivory tone with pronounced chatoyant effect

• Smooth domed cabochon held in a claw setting, surrounded by a graduated halo of faceted clear crystals

• Era: Vintage Japanese jewellery, likely late 20th century

• Styling: Elegant on tailoring, silk scarves, knitwear or a vintage coat — subtle, luminous and highly collectible.
