Red Tiger’s Eye

Science & Origin

Red Tiger'S Eye forms when Golden Tiger'S Eye undergoes natural oxidation or gentle heating, transforming the iron compounds within from yellow-Gold to deep red hues. It belongs to the Quartz family and displays a silky, chatoyant effect known as chatoyancy, caused by parallel fibrous inclusions of Crocidolite that have been replaced by Silica during the pseudomorphic process. The fibrous structure reflects light in bands that shift across the surface, creating a luminous, eye-like appearance that moves as Red Tiger'S Eye is turned. Red Tiger'S Eye maintains the same fundamental properties as its golden counterpart, with a microcrystalline structure that gives it durability and a smooth, polished finish. The rich brick-red to mahogany coloration results from the oxidation of iron oxides embedded within the Quartz matrix. Red Tiger'S Eye has been valued for centuries as a protective talisman and decorative stone, prized for its striking appearance and energetic properties.
