Tiger’s eye is a member of the quartz group of chalcedonies. It is one of the chatoyant gemstones. Chatoyancy exhibits a changeable silky luster as light is reflected within the thin parallel fibrous bands. This effect is due to the fibrous structure of the material Tiger iron is composed of tiger’s eye, red jasper and black hematite. The rippled wavy bands of color often resemble a scenic view. Many legends about quartz say that wearing tiger’s eye (which is a form of quartz) is beneficial for health and spiritual well-being. Legend also says it is a psychic protector, great for business, and an aid to achieving clarity.
