Australian Tiger's Eye

Gemstone Facts, Fiction and Folk Lore

This exceptional looking piece of tiger's eye from Australia looks like the evening sun setting behind a mountain range.  It has a greenish cast with shades of brown, golden yellow, and reds and is in fact,  a combination of tiger's eye, hematite and jasper. 

This type of tiger's eye is only found in one region of Australia, thus the name. It is also more commonly known as Australian Tiger Iron. Because the minerals in this stone are of varying hardness, it is difficult to polish without under cutting.
