Tiger Eye captivates with its warm, golden-brown colour and a mesmerising band of light that glides across its surface with every movement. It is a stone full of energy and strength, whose glow is reminiscent of the gaze of a wild cat. Gold or deep brown? Tiger Eye combines both of these shades. Get to know it better and discover what makes it so unique!

Tiger Eye – a stone with character

Tiger Eye is a variety of quartz containing parallel limonite fibres. These fibres were created during pseudomorphisation of amphibole, a process in which one mineral gradually replaces another while keeping its original shape.

It is these parallel fibres that give the stone its exceptional look. Thanks to them, Tiger Eye stands out from other stones and captivates with a remarkable play of light.

The look of Tiger Eye

Tiger Eye creates a chatoyant effect, a shifting band of light reminiscent of a cat's eye. The glow glides smoothly across the surface of the stone, making it seem almost alive.

The golden-brown bands seem to move as the viewing angle on the specimen changes. As a result, each stone shimmers slightly differently and is truly one of a kind.

The symbolism of Tiger Eye

In contemporary crystal traditions, tiger eye is symbolically associated with themes of courage. Its golden glow and cat-like gaze beautifully reflect this meaning: strength, self-confidence and boldness in following your own path. Tiger Eye is a stone that reminds us of the power of courage and that inner strength lies within each of us.
