Tiger's Eye is a captivating gemstone renowned for its distinctive chatoyancy, a shimmering band of light that glides across its surface, reminiscent of a feline's eye. Typically found in rich golden-brown hues with silken stripes, it can also appear in variations of red (sometimes called Ox Eye) and blue (known as Hawk's Eye). A member of the Quartz family, its unique appearance is formed through a process where Quartz replaces fibrous minerals like Crocidolite, maintaining their parallel structure and creating the mesmerizing optical effect. Beyond its striking beauty, Tiger's Eye is highly regarded for its metaphysical properties, believed to offer protection, courage, and mental clarity. It's often associated with grounding energy, balancing extremes, and enhancing one's willpower and personal power, making it a popular choice for jewelry and spiritual practices alike.
