ONE Australian Tiger Iron Stone Decorator Polished 1.5 inch Egg Beautiful red, metallic black and small amounts of shimmering gold Tiger Iron from Australia. Tiger Iron consists of Red Jasper, Hematite, and Tiger's Eye (or tigereye). Tiger Iron is a great example of a metamorphosed gemstone: More than 2 billion years ago, deposits of these three materials were slowly mashed together as tectonic plates shifted. The tremendous pressures on the original crystals resulted in the intricate, banded designs of tiger iron. Each stone can be seen distinctly in layers of gold, silver, brown and red, drawing unique vertical and horizontal patterns. While the stone is many millennia old, it only recently has become known on the market. There are 11 of these-you won't get the one pictured-I will choose for you! They are hand cut and small, about 1.5 inches or 40 mm tall. Some do have natural surface fracture lines. Metaphysical Properties: Tiger Iron is said to help with creative endeavors and all types of artistic abilities. Tiger Iron is a stone of strength, stamina, and courage.
