Tiger's Eye

Tiger's Eye is a striking and powerful gemstone known for its iridescent, chatoyant stripes that resemble the eye of a tiger. This stone is actually a metamorphic rock that combines the hardness and durability of Quartz with the fibrous, layered properties of Crocidolite, which give it its silky luster and captivating visual effect. Traditionally used as a talisman against curses and ill will, Tiger's Eye is believed to promote clarity of intention, enhance personal power, and offer protection.
