About this piece
A cat's eye bracelet is a stretch band of polished 8 mm cat's eye beads, the stones that show a single bright line of light when turned. In tradition it is worn for protection, intuition and a clear, focused mind, and it is linked with the planet Ketu and the third-eye chakra in crystal lore.
Specifications
How to wear
Wear it on the right wrist, the side most people choose in tradition. Many begin wearing it on a Thursday (Guruvar), the day of Jupiter, or on a day they feel settled. Remove it before bathing, swimming or applying perfume, since water and cosmetics can dull the polish. Cleanse it with incense smoke or by leaving it overnight on a selenite plate.
Frequently asked
Which hand should I wear a cat's eye bracelet on?
Wear it on the right wrist, which is the common choice in tradition. It suits men and women alike, so pick whichever wrist you find more comfortable.
How can I tell a real cat's eye from a fake one?
Look for a single, soft band of light that moves across each bead as you turn it, and slight differences in tone from bead to bead. Glass or resin versions often look too uniform and too shiny.
Who can wear a cat's eye bracelet?
It is a unisex bracelet, suitable for adults who like the look and the traditional meaning. It is a keepsake and style piece, not a medical item.
Does it get wet, and how should I care for it?
Remove it before bathing, swimming or applying perfume, as water and chemicals can dull the polish over time. Wipe it with a soft dry cloth and keep it out of direct sunlight when not worn.
How to verify this is genuine
Ruby and all sapphires are the same mineral, corundum, at Mohs 9 — the hardest gemstone after diamond. The numbers on the lab report do the real work here.
- 01Hardness 9
Corundum scratches quartz (7), topaz (8) and glass; nothing but corundum or diamond scratches it. Test on the pavilion, never the table.
- 02RI 1.762–1.770, SG 3.99–4.00
These must appear on the report and cannot be faked. Citrine reads 1.544/2.65; red garnet and spinel are singly refractive where corundum is doubly refractive.
- 03Curved lines mean synthetic
Under a 10× loupe, flame-fusion synthetic corundum shows curved growth striae and round gas bubbles. Natural stones show silk, angular colour zoning or fingerprint inclusions.
- 04The treatment line (ruby especially)
The report must state treatment explicitly. 'Heated' is standard and acceptable. 'Lead glass filled' or 'composite' means a stone that is part glass, etches in lemon juice and has near-zero resale value.
- 05Verify the certificate online
GIA, IGI, GRS or GTL Jaipur — check the report number on the issuing lab's own website. A large fake-certificate trade exists specifically for the Indian astrological market.
