Stone properties
Feldspar minerals showing adularescence (moonstone), aventurescence (sunstone), or color from copper (amazonite).
The lot
A hand-graded parcel of cabochons of plagioclase cat's eye from Andilamena, Madagascar, calibrated to the 6–18 mm working range. Sold by the parcel, weighed in carats, treatments disclosed.
Origin: Andilamena, Madagascar.
Parcel: Minimum guaranteed 10 ct total weight. Each parcel typically contains 1–3 pieces within the listed size range. You pay for guaranteed weight; piece count varies because natural material isn't uniform.
Size: 6–18 mm.
Weight: Minimum 10 ct per parcel (parent lot has 52 ct available).
Size note: Wide size variance — stones range from 6 mm to 18 mm (3.0× spread). Expect a mix of sizes rather than uniform stones. Best for cutters, lapidary projects, or mixed-jewellery use; not ideal if you need matched pairs.
Treatment: None. 100% natural, untreated material. Disclosed on every listing — that's the Atlas standard.
Setting in jewellery — ring bezels, pendant cabochons, statement earrings. Dome and polish are jewellery-ready.
Hand-graded in our US studio. Treatments disclosed on every listing, no exceptions. Shipped insured from the US since 1995. Returns within 14 days if the stone in hand doesn't match the listing.

The Atlas standard
Five things we promise on the listing, in the package, and after the sale — every time.
Earth-mined. Never lab-grown, never synthetic, never simulated. The only kind of stone we sell — without exception, since 1995.
Country and city when we know it. “Most likely from” when the chain is generalized. Never invented.
Heat, diffusion, dyeing, fracture-filling — declared on every listing. Or marked untreated, when we can confirm it.
Hold every stone in your own light. Return for any reason, free. No questions, no restocking fee. We pay the shipping.
From the US, end-to-end tracked, fully insured to your door. 1–2 days to pack, 2–5 in transit. GIA certification on request.
