Tiger's Eye is a stone resulting from a mixture of several minerals. It is also called hematoid jasper. This brown and gold mineral is a derivative of tiger's eye. It is composed of hematite and magnetite, tiger's eye, and red jasper.

Hematite and magnetite are iron oxides that give the stone its dark, metallic appearance. Tiger's eye gives it beautiful golden inclusions. And finally, jasper provides a beautiful red hue.

The iron eye is therefore an aggregate of minerals appearing in layers and which form designs similar to golden landscapes. For the record, an aggregate is “the union of distinct elements which forms a whole”. The dominant elements are ferrous oxides. They are at the origin of this beautiful metallic luster, hence the name of the stone “iron eye”.

This stone alone combines the powers and benefits of three different minerals:

• Red jasper, which has a high concentration of iron dioxide, which gives it this incredible red color. It is made up of 85% silica and belongs to the quartzite family;

• hematite is mainly composed of oxygen, iron, titanium, aluminum and manganese;

• Tiger's eye also belongs to the quartzite family. It is made up of silicon dioxide, amphibole (a non-hazardous form of asbestos in stone form), and quartz.

The formation of the Iron Eye took place approximately 3 billion years ago. This rock underwent metamorphic crushing of quartz- and limonite-rich sediments. In fact, its structure was altered by heat and pressure. Note: Limonite is a collection of iron oxides and hydroxides and clay.

Its folded band structure and hardness are the result of tectonic movements, the high heat and pressure that this rock has undergone during the metamorphosis process.

Ironstone has a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale. The highest hardness, 10, is that of diamond. It can therefore be worked by jewelers in the manufacture of jewelry such as rings, bracelets, and pendants.

It is also widely used in lithotherapy. Indeed, this rock is very powerful due to its constitution.

There are no myths or legends surrounding this iron eye stone. It is only known that it was used by Roman warriors when they went into battle.

It served as a protective amulet. It protected its wearer from injury, poisoning attempts, insect bites, reptile bites, and death.

The iron eye also allowed the physical strength, energy and rage of the fighters to be increased tenfold.

The main deposits are located in South Africa, Australia, etc.

In lithotherapy, the iron eye has many virtues due to this combination of three minerals. It gives its wearer unfailing optimism. It helps overcome life's difficulties. It relieves emotional shocks such as the loss of a loved one, an unwanted divorce, or unfair dismissal.

This stone is also a powerful shield against attacks from negative people. Not only does it protect its wearer, but it also has a mirror function. It can thus turn the attack back on the person who initiated it.

The iron eye increases the ability to concentrate and memorize. This stone is recommended for students or those undertaking training. It is recommended to place it in your work environment, on your desk for example.

This mineral is nicknamed the stone of the shy. It gives assurance and self-confidence. It encourages a strong morale and the strength to achieve set goals. The red jasper contained in this stone increases energy and vitality tenfold.

The iron eye, like all stones bearing the name eye, helps protect its wearer against negative emotions and energies, against jealousy, envy and anger.

It's a grounding stone. It eliminates stress. Its wearer lives fully in the present moment. They are more stable and ready to manage their emotions. It effectively combats their hypersensitivity. They are also more open to others and show greater tolerance.
