      All About Tiger’s Eye

      Tiger's eye is a metamorphic rock that's usually a shiny golden brown color. Its silky luster is formed when asbestos fibers are replaced by quartz crystals. Tiger eye is found in Western Australia, South Africa, China, and the United States. For centuries, the Tigers eye meaning has evolved, and it's almost sure to have a positive effect on its wearer. Tiger's eye properties have been reported to have interesting metaphysical properties that make it a sought after gemstone. Tiger's eye benefits include increased mental clarity, focus, and other things by tapping into one's personal power.

       

      The purported benefits of Tigers eye stones have only increased the mysticism surrounding them. People claim that it does this by working in harmony with their solar plexus chakra. In ancient times, Egyptians and Romans used it in jewelry and amulets for its spiritual and physical properties too. In the Middle Ages, it was thought to be a magical talisman that could protect one from bad energy. It countered dark, powerful energies with its own positive energies. It helps give you a sense of balance and harmony. To this day, the Tiger's eye still captivates our imaginations. In this article, you'll learn why it's seen in jewelry so prevalent and why you should consider adding this gemstone to your collection. We'll answer questions like can Tiger's eye go in water, or what metals work best with Tiger's eye after we dive into its brief history.

      Tiger's Eye Properties: Tiger’s Eye Benefits and Brief History

      Tiger's eye

      Tiger’s eye gains its silky, lustrous appearance from the parallel intergrowth of a variety of quartz crystals and crocidolite. The red bands are made from iron oxide. The name "Tiger’s eye" comes from its resemblance to the eye of a tiger or cat, though it can also sometimes look like a hawk's eye to some. When you hold it up into the sunlight, the golden rays really bring out the brilliant luster and colors that so many people love Tiger's eye for.

       

      This lucky stone's also believed to protect against negative energies and evil spirits. In eastern mythology, the tiger plays a big role in Chinese culture. It's a fundamental part in Chinese astrology with its healing properties. It taps directly into your sacral chakra, which heavily benefits the creative energy center of your body. Beliefs have developed and changed about magical Tiger's eye stones as the centuries have gone by, but the hype has never truly died down since it helps to bring good luck and fortune.

       

      In more modern times, this golden stone is also said to promote strength, courage, and willpower. Physically, Tiger's eye is thought to be helpful for treating problems with the eyes, stomach, and intestines too. Tiger's eye benefits also include an improvement in circulation in the human body. Whether you believe in the power of gemstones or not, there's no denying that Tiger's eye makes for beautiful jewelry. If you're looking for a unique and stylish piece of jewelry, consider Tiger's eye as a great gemstone to use!

      Can Tiger’s Eye Go In Water?

      Water can damage and dull the luster of many gemstones, so can Tiger's eye go in water? Thankfully, it's one type of jewelry that can go in water without any ill effects. You might find other sources with differences of opinion, but Tiger's eye is a hard crystal that is safe in water and won't damage Tiger's eye properties. This semi precious stone is actually beneficial to wear in water, as the moisture can help to enhance its natural colors and patterns. However, it's best to avoid contact with water for some Tiger's eye jewelry, as it can cause the stone to lose its polish. Some jewelers add a coating to tigers eye to make the polish more pronounced, so washing it too frequently can remove the layer of material. But a lot of people end up using water as a way to help cleanse and re-energize the magical power's energy levels.

      How to Cleanse Your Tiger Eye Stone: Taking Care of Your Powerful Stone

      Supplies used to clean tiger's eye jewelry.

      It's important to know how to properly clean and care for these crystal stones if you get your hands on this gorgeous type of gemstone.

       

      1) Do not use harsh chemicals or cleaners on your Tiger's eye jewelry as they can also damage the stone.

       

      2) If your Tiger's eye jewelry does get wet, let it air dry naturally. Do not use a blow dryer on this golden brown stone.

       

      3) Store your Tiger's eye jewelry separately from other pieces, as there's a chance that they will scratch one another if they're constantly rubbing against each other.

       

      4) Wash gently with warm and soapy water before letting it air dry.

      I Don't Believe In Superstitions: Why Should I Consider Tiger's Eye Jewelry?

      People have always prized it for its magical powers and good luck to its wearer, but what if you don't believe in the mysticism? The major reason why it's such a good pick is that it's very durable and can last a lifetime with proper care. It also has a unique color palette that pairs well with many of our available customization options. Tiger's eye jewelry is easy for you to own. You never have to worry about rust or tarnishing. Precautions aren't necessary under regular care.

      What Pairs Well With Tiger's Eye Jewelry?

      There are a few different metals that would pair well with tiger's eye. Some good choices would be yellow gold, rose gold, or even sterling silver. These metals would complement the warm tones of the tiger's eye and would create a beautiful overall look. There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to choosing between yellow gold, rose gold, or sterling silver.

       

      It ultimately comes down to personal preference like most things jewelry-related. If you love the warm tones of yellow gold, then that would be a great choice. If you prefer the romantic look of rose gold, then that would be a great option. And if you like the classic look of sterling silver, then that would be a great choice as well. Ultimately, it all comes down to what you personally love and what will look best with your Tiger's eye. You could technically pair Tiger's eye with a dark band like black ceramic if you wanted to.

      Is Tiger's Eye Right For You?

      From the magical benefits to the ease of owning Tiger's eye, our available pendants and wedding rings are great options to house this beautiful material. Adding Tiger's eye to your one-of-a-kind wedding ring or pendant can really highlight your jewelry.
