About This Tiger Eye

Tiger eye is gold and brown quartz with a silky shimmer called chatoyancy, caused by parallel fibers that catch light and seem to move as you tilt the stone. It's the closest thing to optical magic in the stone world. Roman soldiers carried tiger eye for bravery in battle.

These tumbled stones come from Northern Cape, South Africa. Worth knowing: a lot of the tiger eye on the market is heat-treated. What we carry is natural and untreated.

Traditionally Used For

Tiger eye has long been used in practices around settling into who you already are, career, and coming back to the task in front of you. It's traditionally linked to the solar plexus and root chakras. If that resonates, carry it when you need to settle into your own confidence. There's no single right way to carry it.

These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.

Care and Use

Sensitivity Low

Tiger Eye sits at 6.5-7 on the Mohs scale, about as hard as glass, so it handles daily use but will scratch against harder stones. Keep chemical cleaners away from it; they can etch the surface.

Will I get the exact pieces in the photos?

You'll receive pieces from the same batch photographed, weighed to the amount you choose. Every piece passes our quality control and meets or exceeds what you see in the photos. Single specimens are listed separately and say so.

What size are the pieces, and how many are in a pound?

Each piece measures 1 to 2 inches on its longest side and weighs 10 to 50 grams. About 12 to 20 pieces per pound at this size, and each option shows its piece count.

What does AA grade mean?

Grades reflect visual quality within a batch. A is standard, with typical inclusions. AA shows stronger color, cleaner surfaces and tighter sizing. AAA is the top 10 to 15 percent of a batch. Every lot is inspected and graded by our team in Rockville, Maryland, not taken on the supplier’s word.
