Tiger’s Eye Palm Stone A+ grade: To Go!

These Tiger’s Eye Palm Stones are completely natural and of very good quality. But these pillow shapes are lovely to hold, to massage with and to lay on the body. And they make a nicer gift than a tumble. Trying to photograph this one caused some troubles with reflections. The shimmering is on the two main sides and not in the “flat” parts.

Look at the spectacular banding which no banding of hematite and jasper. The biggest reason people buy tigers eye geologically is because of the chatoyancy. This is real. There is plenty of glass that shimmers being sold as this crystal.

This crystal increases self-understanding. And I personally can attest to how it grounds me during chaotic situations and brings the real issues to light. Read more about how the shape can help.

A tiger’s eye palm stone like this is also great for massage and some pop one in their coat pockets.
