BLUE TIGER EYE SPHERE

A great Chatoyant Blue Tiger Eye Sphere, also known as Hawk’s Eye.  Blue and Gold shimmer about as you move the sphere around.  A amazing piece that you won’t be able to put down!  Chatoyance is the characteristic which gives an ethereal quality to all good Tiger Eye specimens.  When polished into a sphere it is accentuated.  One of my favourites and always hard to find with the Blue colouring.
