Cat's eye opal?!

While cutting yesterday I found a real odd pattern IMO.
Not the best picture, but it looks and behaves quite similar to a cat's eye.
Small stone, though. Going into my personal collection. :icon_thumright:



A few others I cut yesterday:


Also cut my largest cabb ever, boulder opal:
 

Very nice EU. What do you do with these? Sell them? Jewelry?

I just do this as a hobby for now, I do sell on occasion though. Some of my stones have been set in jewellery. :)
