Slip this minimalist size 18 ring onto your finger. It is made entirely from a single block of tiger’s eye. Warm, golden-brown tones create regular, striped patterns across the smooth band. With every movement of your hand, you’ll notice the characteristic silky streak of light shifting along the polished surface and following the stone’s fibers. The simple, setting-free design highlights the stone’s natural character.

About the stone
Tiger’s eye is an opaque variety of quartz formed through a pseudomorphic process after fibrous crocidolite. The original mineral fibers were replaced by silica while retaining their parallel arrangement. This structure is responsible for the cat’s-eye effect, or chatoyancy—the silky band of light that moves as the stone is rotated. The main deposits of this mineral are located in South Africa, Australia, and Brazil. Learn more in the article Tiger’s Eye — Properties and History on our blog.
Care
Clean the tiger’s eye band with a damp, soft cloth. Avoid strong detergents and impacts against hard surfaces. Store it in a soft pouch or a separate compartment of your jewelry box.
