Tigers Eye is an example of a Chatoyant quartz, they are usually cut en cabochon and polished as this displays the stripes better.
Peridot quartz is just the color possibly. Peridot is actually a semi precious stone. Cabochon is a type of cut. As for the Peridot Quartz.....I am not sure if it is actual peridot or a another name game to sell lab-created crap.

Diamond is diamond: its composition is C. Aquamarine is aquamarine: its composition is Be3Al2Si6O18.
The cat's eye effect can be seen in cabochon cut quartz, chrysoberyl and tourmaline and is known as "chatoyancy" and is shown as a wavy and changeable band of light across the top of the cabochon.
