Blue Tigers Eye and Sterling Silver Bracelet

This rare variety of Tigers Eye is midnight blue in color and a spectacular bead. The shiny beads are alternated with granular sterling silver rondelles and round beads that enhance the beauty of the deep blue beads.

Tiger Eye is an iron bearing Quartz. The quartz is in a fibrous formation creating parallel lines within the gemstone. Light shining on the stone seems to move across the surface of the stone, a phenomenon known as 'Chatoyancy' coming from the French word for cat. The pictures do not capture this wonderful display, but it is characteristic of this gemstone. The stone was thought in ancient times to bring good fortune and protection from the 'Evil Eye'. Roman soldiers were known to wear Tiger Eye to battle for protection. It is the gemstone for the 9th wedding anniversary. The presence of Iron Oxide determines the intensity of the golden color of the Tiger Eye. The lack of very little levels of iron oxide produces Blue Tiger Eye, which is also known as Hawks Eye, and is less common than Tiger Eye. Could it possibly help in keeping those New Year's resolutions?
