Bear Stone Animal Carved Tigereye Tiger's Eye Lovely gold Tiger's Eye from Africa. Tigereye (or Tigerseye) is a quartz usually with rich yellow and brown stripes, but can be red or blue. It contains oriented fibers of crocidolite that have been replaced by silica. The fibers are twisted or crumpled instead of straight, reminiscent of sand and sunlight. Tigereye is also vitreous (hard, unbendable and glasslike). With its strong chatoyance, the gemstone gets its name from its resemblance to the eye of a tiger Custom hand carved into a beautiful bear, 4.5 inches long by 1.75 inches wide and 2.25 inches tall. This bear has a matte finish with lots of details and flash! The bear is the symbol of maternal protection, as well as strength, courage, power and honor. A bear fetish is believed to lighten emotional burdens. Many civilizations have myths regarding bears, from the Greeks and the Celts to the Ainu of northern Japan and the tribes of North America.
