Gemstone (Blue Tigers Eye)

Historical Lore

Blue tiger’s eye (also known as hawk’s eye) is a fibrous variety of quartz formed through the alteration of crocidolite. It is primarily sourced in South Africa and Australia. Historically, it has been valued in lapidary and ornamental stonework for its silky optical effect known as chatoyancy. In ancient Roman tradition, tiger’s eye varieties were used in carved amulets and decorative objects, though blue varieties are more commonly associated with modern mineral collections rather than widespread ancient use.
