Characteristics of the stone

Tiger's Eye is a crystal with an iridescent pattern of golden color.
Tiger stone looks like a golden-brown mineral with an unusual silky sheen. The crystal owes its name to its color. It alternates dark and golden stripes that resemble the skin of a tiger. Additionally, some gem mining points coincide with the habitat of these predators.

The color of the stone is due to the presence of impurities in the form of limonite, goethite and iron hydroxides.

The tiger's eye itself is formed from ocular varieties of quartz. The latter are called the hawk's eye. The mineral has a fibrous structure and has an iridescent effect. It stands out most strongly during cabochon processing. In this case, the jeweler gives the stone a convex shape without edges.

How to wear and care

One of the main rules, or rather, warnings, concerns the temperament of the carrier. Tiger's eye is not suitable for passive, lazy people.

Creative people should wear jewelry in the form of rings and earrings;
The suspension will help reduce risks, injuries, and prevent danger;
Any piece of jewelry is recommended for people who lack self-confidence;
Businessmen wear a tiger eye framed in precious metal.

It is important to remember that you cannot wear someone else’s jewelry, since it contains information and energy of the true owner.

Origin story

Scientists have not established where and when people first began to use the gem. In the chronicles of different countries you can find references to the fact that the stone has magical powers. In India it was called the eye of Shiva. There, talismans were worn mainly by warriors. It was believed that if a person is in danger, his amulet becomes heavier.

The gem acted as a talisman for warriors not only in India, but also in Ancient Rome. It is assumed that the talisman came from India to Greece along with the soldiers of Alexander the Great. Later, the Romans also paid attention to it.

In Australian and African tribes, jewelry was given by the leader to those people whom he considered his chosen ones and main assistants. The products symbolized fairness, justice and power.

Types of stone

There are several varieties of gems. For example, on the surface of a zebra's eye, dark brown and light, almost white stripes alternate. Additionally, bull's eye and hawk's eye are distinguished.

Bulls-eye

Bull's eye is formed from tiger's eye as a result of hydrothermal processes. Under the influence of high temperature, limonite, which has an ocher-yellow color, is transformed into red-brown hematite. Thanks to this, a rich scarlet-raspberry hue appears.

Bull's eye is the same as tiger's eye, but exposed to high temperatures.

Hawkeye

The hawk's eye is the predecessor of the tiger's eye. It is obtained by splitting a crocodile. This is blue asbestos - a mineral with a fine-fiber structure. The stripes are clearly visible on it. When split, many individual flexible, strong fibers are formed, which create a silky surface. This creates a hawk's eye that combines gray and blue colors.

What is the price?

Simple gems are inexpensive: about $10 per carat. Rare specimens (with a rainbow glow) rise in price to $30 per carat.

Caring for the stone is the simplest - with soapy water. To remove energy pollution, you can simply rinse it with running water (hold it under water for half an hour or an hour). Earth cleansing is also used: bury it in the ground for a day so that the stone is freed from negative energy.

To charge the stone and activate its magical properties, it is recommended to leave it in the sun for several hours.

Who is the mineral not recommended for?
