Red Tiger Eye Bracelet
Red tiger's eye is a heat-treated, chatoyant variety of quartz, traditionally associated with vitality, motivation, and confidence. This bracelet is strung with natural red tiger eye beads — deep reddish-brown stone shot through with the silky, shifting band of light tiger's eye is famous for. Beads come in 4mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, and 12mm sizes on a stretch cord that fits most wrists without a clasp; because each bead is cut from natural stone, depth of red and chatoyant flash vary bead to bead.

Meaning & history
In crystal tradition, red tiger's eye is known as a stone of vitality and motivation — associated with confidence, drive, and a boost of warm, energizing fire. Many people wear it to work through hesitation and stay motivated under pressure. It is often linked to the Root and Sacral chakras. Worth knowing: red tiger's eye gets its color through heat treatment — natural tiger's eye is golden-brown, and controlled heating shifts the iron oxide within the stone toward red. This is standard, disclosed trade practice and doesn't change the stone's durability or its place in the wider tiger's eye family.
How to wear it
Slip it on in the morning for a confident, energizing lift, wear it during goal-setting or meditation, or stack it alongside other pieces from our crystal bracelets collection. Pair it with a Citrine Tumbled Stone for an extra dose of warm, motivating energy.
Care & cleansing
Red tiger's eye is a hard, durable quartz and wears well daily. Remove it before swimming, showering, or applying lotion, and store it out of direct sunlight when not worn to help preserve its color. Wipe beads gently with a soft, dry cloth — avoid harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners. Refresh it energetically with moonlight, smoke, or sound.
