Golden-brown and clear, gold-threaded beads alternate on the wrist, with a small elephant charm between them: the tiger eye and rutilated quartz bracelet radiates a warm, sunny glow. The elastic cord goes on easily, with no clasp.
The two stones
Tiger eye is a golden-brown, silky quartz; its banded play of light, called chatoyancy, comes from a fibrous structure within. Tradition links it to the solar plexus, grounding and inner strength. Rutilated quartz is clear quartz threaded with golden-reddish rutile (titanium dioxide) needles – this fine threading is also called Venus hair. Tradition knows it as an energising, cleansing stone that strengthens intention.
The elephant symbol
In many cultures the elephant is a symbol of wisdom, strength and luck; a raised trunk is a traditional sign of good fortune. A subtle yet meaningful accent on the bracelet.
