Frequently Asked Questions
What creates the moving golden light band on Tiger’s Eye beads?
The moving golden sheen (chatoyancy) is a natural optical reflection from parallel microscopic mineral fibers preserved inside the quartz during metamorphic crystal growth.
Is Golden Tiger’s Eye heat-treated or dyed?
No. Golden-yellow and brown are the natural, untreated colors of earth-mined Tiger’s Eye quartz, verified by TSGTL laboratory report #TSGTL5780.
What wrist size does this 24-bead bracelet fit?
Strung with 24 calibrated round beads on a resilient multi-strand stretch cord, this bracelet comfortably fits standard adult wrists measuring 6.5 to 7.5 inches (16.5 to 19 cm). If you need a smaller 21-bead or larger 27-bead fit, you can customize your exact size in our Custom Bracelet Builder.
