Tiger's Eye Faceted Bracelet (4mm)
Tiger's eye is a golden-brown variety of quartz (SiO₂) containing crocidolite fibers, which give it a silky, shimmering "cat's eye" effect known as chatoyancy. This bracelet strings small 4mm faceted tiger's eye beads, cut to catch extra light, for a delicate, understated take on a classic grounding stone.

Meaning & history
Tiger's eye has long been valued in crystal tradition as a stone of protection and grounding, associated with confidence and clear, focused thinking, and often described as a bringer of good luck to the wearer. Its shimmering band of light, caused by the fibrous crocidolite structure, has made it a popular choice for centuries. Linked to the solar plexus chakra, it's a favorite in our crystal bracelets collection for anyone wanting a grounded, motivating daily piece.
How to use it
Slide the bracelet onto your wrist — the stretch cord fits most wrists comfortably. Many people wear tiger's eye daily as a steady, motivating companion, especially during busy workdays or moments that call for extra confidence and focus. Because the beads are faceted, they catch and reflect light as your wrist moves, giving the shimmering chatoyant effect its subtle sparkle throughout the day.
Care & cleansing
Tiger's eye itself is a hard, durable quartz and generally water-safe, so brief contact with water won't harm the stone. That said, it's best to keep the beads and elastic cord reasonably dry — prolonged soaking can weaken the stretch cord over time, so remove the bracelet before swimming or long showers. To cleanse its energy in crystal tradition, many people use moonlight, sound, smoke, or rest it near other crystals. A soft cloth is fine for everyday wiping.
