Tiger's eye is a fascinating gemstone that is mainly found in South Africa. Other important locations are Australia, India, Canada, China, the Ukraine and the USA. These regions offer the ideal geological conditions for the formation of this unique mineral.
The characteristic golden-brown color of tiger's eye is created by the incorporation of iron oxides during the formation of quartz. Its striking, silky sheen makes it a sought-after gemstone and healing stone.
How do I recognize genuine tiger's eye?
You can recognize a genuine tiger's eye by its golden brown color with a characteristic silky shimmer and the "cat's eye effect" - a shimmering stripe that moves under light.
