The Natural Gemstone Company is delighted to present a remarkable gemstone that exemplifies the beauty and mystique inherent in nature’s creations: an exquisite 11.31 carat oval-shaped tiger's eye. This stunning piece is characterized by its golden brown hue, skillfully crafted into a cabochon cut, giving it a smooth, polished surface that captures the eye with its unparalleled luster. With dimensions of 18.15 x 13.13 x 7.02 mm, this tiger's eye captures attention with its rich color and excellent craftsmanship, originating from the renowned mineral-rich regions of South Africa.

Our tiger's eye stone possesses an opaque clarity grade, ensuring an intriguing play of light on its surface, enhanced by its exceptional polish.

The cabochon cut enhances its chatoyancy, an admired characteristic of tiger's eye, allowing for the distinctive, mesmerizing band of light that seems to hover and glide across the surface. This visual phenomenon, often referred to as the “cat’s eye effect,” adds an element of dynamic visual intrigue to the stone.
