Meaning & history
Tiger's eye has been carried for generations as a stone of confidence, courage, and grounded focus, qualities many people link to the solar plexus chakra, the energy center associated with personal power. It's a long-standing favorite for anyone working on confidence and self-acceptance, worn as a steady, motivating companion through the day. The hand-wrapped wire setting is a traditional way to hold a raw or polished stone without drilling it, letting the natural chatoyancy take center stage.

How to wear it
Hang the pendant on the included adjustable cord, or transfer the wire-wrapped stone to a chain of your choice for a different look. Many people wear it during the day as a quiet, steady reminder of confidence and focus, especially before something like a presentation or a difficult conversation. The stone catches light and shifts subtly as it moves, so it stays visually interesting throughout the day.
Care & cleansing
Tiger's eye is a durable stone at 7 on the Mohs scale, tolerant of everyday wear and a brief rinse under running water if it picks up dust or lotion. Skip long soaks and extended salt-water baths, since prolonged exposure can still dull the surface over time, and be gentle with the wire wrap itself, which can loosen with repeated tugging. Dry with a soft cloth after rinsing. For energetic cleansing, a quick pass through running water, moonlight, or sound all work well for this stone.
