TIGER EYE:
Tigers eye is a variety of quartz that is well known for its silky luster and beautiful striations. It has inclusions of iron and quartz, which give the stone its striped appearance and an optical effect thats called chatoyancy (chat is French for cat). Name given to the curious optical effect in which a band of light is reflected in certain cut gemstones, creating an appearance similar to light bouncing off a cat's eye.
Egyptians believed it to be a form of the all-seeing eye and used it to make actual eyes for gods statues. Tigers eye was carried to battle by Roman soldiers, who thought it would give them the strength and courage of a tiger.
The Ancient Chinese credited it with bringing good fortune to the wearer. In Eastern folklore, tigers depict courage, power, and integrity. This is why it was thought that these qualities were bestowed by the stone.
