Tiger's Eye Wire Wrap Pendant 3 Inch

Tiger's Eye is a quartz pseudomorph after crocidolite asbestos, formed when silica gradually replaces the fibrous asbestos while preserving the original fibrous structure. The result is a stone with a distinctive optical phenomenon called chatoyancy, a silky, shifting luster that moves across the surface as the stone is tilted, resembling the reflective quality of a cat's eye. Tiger's Eye's characteristic golden-brown color is produced by iron oxide within the fibrous structure. It is found primarily in South Africa, Australia, and India, and has been used as a protective talisman across cultures for thousands of years. This Tiger's Eye Wire Wrap Pendant measures 3 inches and is handcrafted in healing copper wire.

Metaphysical Properties

• Copper Amplification: The copper wire wrap amplifies the stone's empowering and protective energy throughout the day.

Crystal Care

• Water: Remove before swimming or bathing to protect the copper wire from oxidizing. Tiger's Eye itself is water-safe.
• Sunlight: Tiger's Eye is stable in sunlight and can be charged outdoors.
• Cleansing: Smudge with sage or palo santo, or place on a Selenite charging plate overnight.
• Copper care: The copper wire will naturally develop a patina over time. Polish with a soft cloth if preferred, or allow the patina to develop naturally.
