Eye of the Tiger - Tiger's Eye Necklace

See the world in a new way - Through the glowing golden tiger's eye. Once more precious than gold, the ancient Egyptians believed it expressed Divine vVision. Think of the tiger -- it's awareness, and ability to clearly see opportunities in its surroundings, and take action.

This beautifully chatoyant (glowing!) stone can help you visualize more positive, optimistic, clear willpower in your life.

Tiger's Eye is found and mined in hot, dry, wild places -- as such it is considered a yang stone, of bright energy. Soak up the warm sun!

It is also considered a lucky, and protective amulet.

Lithium Crystals anyone? You won't be flying a Starship Enterprise on these, but the major component of Green Tourmaline is Lithium. And, yeah! It makes you feel good.

Tourmaline is a Ring Silicate, or cyclosilicate - that means the molecules form in a circular structure, which terminates in a trigonal crystal.

The colors of tourmaline are varied based on the elements available at the time they crystallize. An abundance of chromium will produce green crystals. Changing conditions create the bi- tri- and "watermelon" type tourmalines which form when the preferred element is depleted during crystallization, and a secondary element creates a new color that overgrows the first.

When sliced crosswise, the crystal displays a unique color-zoning.

When heated or rubbed, tourmaline acquires an electric charge. It's called pyroelectricity - a scientific but very magical property. It was highly prized by alchemists in search of the philosopher's stone.

It is a metamorphic rock, found in pegmatite deposits throughout the world. Tourmaline was the first commercial gemstone mined in the US, with a discovery at Paris, Maine, very nearby me! Another world famous location is in Newry, Maine, literally just down the road from me. I have collected stones, specimens, and crystals at many locations like these in Western Maine.

The tourmalines used here are from World locations, as Maine crystals have become much sought-after, and extremely expensive.

There are famous tourmalines in the Russian Crown Jewels, which were thought to be rubies. There is also a State of Maine tourmaline necklace, which now resides at the Maine Mineral and Gem Museum in Bethel.
