Quartz Cats Eye is a type of gemstone that exhibits an optical phenomenon called chatoyancy, which  creates a luminous band resembling a cat's eye. It is caused by fibrous inclusions within the quartz that reflect light in a concentrated manner. The gemstone comes in various colors, with golden yellow to brown being the most common.
