  Chrysoberyl - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cymophane has its derivation also from the Greek words meaning wave and appearance, in reference to the opalescence sometimes exhibited.
In this variety, microscopic tubelike cavities or needlelike inclusions of rutile occur in an orientation parallel to the c-axis producing a chatoyant effect visible as a single ray of light passing across the crystal.
Although other minerals such as tourmaline, scapolite, corundum, spinel and quartz can form "cat's eye" stones similar in appearance to cymophane, the jewelry industry designates these stones as "quartz cat's eyes", or "ruby cat's eyes" and only chrysoberyl can be referred to as "cat's eye" with no other designation.

 Vogue Gioiello - The international website for jewelry, goldsmith and watchmaking
Many minerals show chatoyancy, but the most typical example is the “tiger’s eye” quartz variety, where the phenomenon is caused by the parallel crocidolite fibres, a type of asbestos (an amphibole).
The most sought-after ‘cat’s-eye’ gem stone, however, is the “cymophane” variety of the chrysoberyl, but the cat’s-eye varieties of other minerals, such as tourmalines, beryls, diopsides, zircons, scapolites and, very rarely, corundums, are just as attractive.
The cat’s-eye effect is not exclusive to natural stones, as it can also be found in synthetic and artificial stones, such as synthetic alexandrites and a lot of imitation glass.

I took the consequence of his incompetence and stupidity and started up my own label, called Burznazg (in Tolkien's Black Speech that is "Dark Ring"), that was later (in late 1992) changed to Cymophane (Greek: "Wave to appear", the name of a gem that is shaped like an eye), and decided to do everything myself.
When I got out from prison I was pretty disillusioned by all that had happened in the media, and the police had made such a mess for me when they had their raid in my apartment that it was hard to run Cymophane like I had planned to.
Instead I got a deal with a distribution company in Oslo for Cymophane, and continued on my own.
