The gemstone known as tiger's eye is a form of chalcedony quartz. It is natural to think that tiger's eye got its name from its similarity to the eye of a tiger. If true, one can only assume that very few people had ever seen the eye of a tiger. In fact, the eyes of big cats such as tigers have round pupils like humans. Our tiger eye earrings do have a rich, golden brown color like the tiger's eye. Tiger's eye was first discovered in South Africa in the early 1800s. Tiger's eye is mined there as well as in Australia, the USA, Canada, India, Namibia, and Burma.
