 Tiger eye is a chatoyant gemstone that is golden yellow to reddish brown color usually with black stripes, but sometime is pink, blue or red.  Chatoyant gems get their name from the French Term œil de chat, which translates to cat’s eye.  It’s silky luster and golden color come from the small amounts of iron oxide in the stone and the chatoyancy is present because of the trace amounts of rutile composed within the stone. Although it can be found in all locations of the world, Tiger eye is mostly commonly sourced in the South Africa along the northern Cape province but is also frequently sourced in Namibia, India, Thailand, Australia, Canada, and the United States.

History

This stone has long been attributed to the king of the jungle, giving it the name.  The ancient Chinese believed that the tiger eye offered protection against evil and was a direct connection to Tigers.  An ancient Chinese practice, Feng-Shui which is used to achieve harmony and balance, the tiger eye was placed in doorways and in rooms where important decisions were made to aid in good fortune and protection.  In ancient Egypt, the pharaohs wore the stone to increase their vigor and vitality.  This gemstone has been discovered in many Egyptian tombs to help transition the dead into the afterlife and it was commonly believed that wearing a bracelet with the stone would represent the rays of the sun and pay a direct tribute to the sun god, Ra.  The ancient Romans would carve them into amulets, talismans and the breastplates of the soldiers, to protect them in battle.  During the Middle Ages, tiger eye was worn as a pendant to break wicked spells and ward off evil spirits.
