14K Gold Clasp and Findings/Tiger’s Eye and Pyrite
Tiger Eye is especially common in South Africa, but can be found in various locations around the world. Tiger Eye is a fibrous variety of chalcedony that exhibits a property called chatoyancy, which is an optical effect that produces vertical, shimmering bands. Tiger Eye is a type of quartz, made up of silica. The chatoyancy of the stone is caused by altered amphibole (an inosilicate) fibers that have over time become limonite.
Tiger Eye is thought to benefit many chakras. This stone is often worn to foster courageous, yet grounded decision making and clarity.
Golden Pyrite is an iron sulfide, and is the most common of the sulfide minerals. Pyrite can be sourced from all over the world.
Pyrite is thought to attract luck, prosperity, and abundance to its wearer. This stone is also said to promote productivity and revitalization.
