• The color of the Tiger's eye is at the origin of its name, in fact the characteristic colors of this stone (shimmering shades of golden yellow and brown) are reminiscent of the iris and the tiger's coat. Due to its symbolism, the tiger was the ideal animal to designate this stone, since it embodies strength and protection, mainly in Chinese culture. Since the Middle Ages, this stone has been used as protection, mounted as a talisman. It was also used to obtain luck and goods. Finally, in Scotland, the tiger's eye symbolized prosperity, and it was said to bring wealth to anyone who wore this stone. According to traditions, it protects against snakes, vampires and curses.
