Each piece is made by hand in small numbers, so we render it rather than photograph a duplicate. The image shows the form, the material, the finish and the proportion — it is not a photograph of the exact piece you will receive, and natural stone varies from one piece to the next. Write to us and we will photograph the actual piece in stock, with its weight and measurements, before you buy.
Tiger Eye Nugget Bracelet
Focal Centre · Tiger Eye
Beads left in the shape the rough broke into, so no two carry the same pattern. Tiger eye is quartz that replaced the fibres of crocidolite while keeping their structure, and that structure is what produces the chatoyant band of light that slides across the surface as the stone turns.
Tiger eye is quartz that replaced the fibres of crocidolite while keeping their structure, and that structure is what produces the chatoyant band of light that slides across the surface as the stone turns. It is a replacement, not a coating: the shimmer comes from inside the stone and runs the full depth of it.
Beads left in the shape the rough material broke into, tumbled smooth but otherwise uncut. It is the least worked shape here, and on a stone with strong veining it produces the most varied strand, because no two beads carry the same piece of the pattern.
One larger bead at the centre of the wrist, with everything else stepped down from it. The centrepiece is the piece you are buying and the rest of the strand exists to frame it, which is why a single replacement bead is the hard part of repairing one.
Sizing: the strand is strung on a doubled elastic core with a knotted finish, and it is made in three lengths — a snug 16 cm, the standard 18 cm, and a loose 20 cm. Beads are graded by hand before stringing, so the strand you receive is matched for size and tone from the first bead to the last. Every bracelet is strung to order in small numbers; if you would like the exact strand photographed before it ships, ask and we will send you the picture.
Care: Durable and easy. The effect dulls if the surface is scratched, so store it away from harder stones.

We do not quote a delivery date. Once a parcel leaves us it is carried by an international courier and cleared by customs in your country, and a date we cannot control is a date we will not promise. The tracking number, which you get when the label is created, shows every scan to your door.
