Blue Tiger Eye Bracelet V (10mm)

Before the Gold Blue tiger eye holds the cooler color of a familiar stone. As iron in its mineral fibers oxidizes, blue can give way to the warm brown and gold of tiger eye. The Stone Inside the quartz, fine parallel fibers catch the light. Turn your wrist and a silky band moves across the dark blue-grey surface, an effect called chatoyancy. Polished 10mm beads are spaced with 925 sterling silver, showing the shifting pattern from one stone to the next. The History In the nineteenth century, tiger eye was prized enough to be sold by the carat and used in fine jewelry. The blue variety is known as hawk’s eye, a name that suits its watchful, eye-like sheen. The Belief In modern crystal traditions, hawk’s eye is associated with clarity, awareness and calm focus. Its meaning is one of composure: taking time to observe, think clearly and act with intention. Made with natural gemstones. Slight variations in color, size and pattern make every piece unique.
