Tiger Eye .925 Silver Earrings

Tiger Eye .925 Silver Earrings (shop SKU IGTIGE50) is a pair of earrings on the shelves at Namaste Bookshop in Manhattan.

Tiger eye is a chatoyant quartz, usually golden-brown, with a silky band of light that moves as the stone is turned. South Africa is a classic source. In crystal traditions, tiger eye is associated with courage and focus. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim.

Sterling silver is 92.5% silver, often stamped .925; like all silver, it can tarnish over time and can be brightened with a soft polishing cloth. Store jewelry dry and away from lotions, perfume, and harsh cleaners to keep it looking its best.
