Tiger Eye
About tiger eye
Tiger Eye is a natural quartz with silky golden-brown bands that shift as the stone moves — an effect called chatoyancy, the same optical property that gives Cat's Eye its name. It is worn for courage, focus and grounded confidence, and is one of the most popular everyday healing stones. Every piece here is natural, certified and priced per ratti.
Tiger Eye vs Cat's Eye
They are different stones. Tiger Eye is a quartz — affordable, opaque, with broad silky bands. Chrysoberyl Cat's Eye (Lehsunia) is the true Ketu stone of Vedic astrology — far rarer, translucent, with a single sharp line. If you have been advised Lehsunia for Ketu, Tiger Eye is not a substitute for it.
