Black Tigers Eye Slice
This black tigers eye stone has been beautifully polished but only on one side.
A subtle ghost-like sheen runs horizonatally just above centre. It's visible irrespective of the angle at which the stone is held. Caused by an optical phenomenon known as chatoyance, it becomes more visible with brighter light.
Chatoyance is a band of reflected light that moves just beneath the surface of the stone.
A very unique piece of this popular mineral.
