Medium African Tumble Stones - Tiger's Eye, Mixed (12 pcs)
Tiger's eye is one of the most recognisable and beloved tumbled stones in the world. This medium-sized African tumble stone selection offers a fascinating mix of golden, red and blue-toned tiger's eye specimens. Each stone features a unique natural pattern: the parallel, silky fibres create a vivid chatoyancy (cat's eye effect) as light moves across the surface. According to the supplier's data, the stones originate from South Africa.
