Tiger eye

Tiger's eye is a mineral that shines like the sun's rays trapped in stone! It has a warm golden brown color with silky stripes that reflect the light in a magical way, almost like a tiger's gaze. This special appearance is called chatoyans, and occurs because the fibers in the mineral have been replaced by quartz and iron oxide over time. The stone is a variant of quartz and is found in many parts of the world, including South Africa and Australia. Tiger eye is formed deep in the earth's crust and is known for its wear resistance and smooth surface.
