The Colors of Tigers Eye

Golden Tigers Eye Ball


Someone was recently asking me about the types of Tigers Eye. Tigers Eye is a form of Quartz with fibers that are bent and crumpled, thus giving the stone its chatoyance (cat's eye like shine). You will find Golden Tigers Eye which show colors from deep brown to golden yellow.

There is Blue Tigers Eye which is a very deep Navy Blue. There is Black Tigers Eye which actually may be blue but is so dark that it looks black! There is Red Tigers Eye which has a reddish brown tone.  

Whatever the color, Tigers Eye brings a mesmerizing optical illusion and helps us in grounding and confidence.

Give me your reds and greens...Christmas Crystals!

With Christmas around the corner, we are thinking about the traditional reds and greens of crystals and creative ways of gifting them off... 



Find a crystal that naturally shows red and green, like this Bloodstone heart, one side red and one side green:

Choose Jewelry pre-created with greens and reds like this Jasper and Amazonite memory coil bracelet (okay, so blue-green!) and Jasper and Aventurine earrings:

Combine green with red tumbles like beautifully banded green Malachite and bright red Jasper:
