Cats Eye Granite

Cats Eye Granite is quarried from specific regions in India where distinctive geological conditions produce this visually striking stone with unique optical characteristics. This granite features a predominantly grey to charcoal background with flowing bands of lighter grey, white, and occasional golden-brown minerals that create undulating wave patterns across its surface. The medium-grain structure contains aligned mineral formations that produce a subtle chatoyancy effect—a reflective shimmer reminiscent of a cat’s eye when light strikes the surface at certain angles. Cats Eye demonstrates reliable compressive strength, good density, and moderate porosity suitable for diverse applications. Its dynamic patterning and unusual optical qualities distinguish it within natural stone markets.

Buyers who like warm brown stones often compare Tan Brown Granite with Cats Eye Granite, as it offers a rich chocolate base with coppery mineral clusters that complement similar interior themes.
