All auctions / Ethnographical / Blue Tiger’s eye - Bracelet - South Africa - 7A quality
Premium bracelet made from 7A blue tiger's eye from South Africa, paired with refined 925 sterling silver spacers. The bracelet consists of carefully selected, highly polished beads of about 8 mm. The stones have a very dark blue-black base color with a pronounced silky blue chatoyance. When the bracelet is moved or viewed from different angles, a bright blue light band runs across the surface of the beads. This characteristic cat’s eye effect gives the stones striking depth and dynamism. Depending on the light, the appearance ranges from almost black and midnight blue to intense steel and cobalt blue. Between the tiger eye beads are small, polished 925 sterling silver beads of about 2 mm. The cool silver forms a subtle contrast with the deep blue of the stones and gives the bracelet a refined finish without overpowering the natural character of tiger eye. The bracelet has a length of about 18 cm and a total weight of 21.4 grams. Specifications * Mineral: blue tiger’s eye / hawk’s eye * Commercial quality: 7A * Origin: South Africa * Color: dark blue to blue-black * Optical effect: strong blue chatoyance / cat’s eye effect * Bead diameter: approx. 8 mm * Spacers: approx. 2 mm * Spacer material: 925 sterling silver * Length: approx. 18 cm * Weight: 21.4 grams * Finish: high-gloss polished * Construction: elastic stringing * Condition: very good Special features The main visual feature of this piece is the strong and clearly visible blue chatoyance. The fine parallel fiber structure in tiger eye reflects light as a moving band of light, making the beads look different from every viewing angle. The selected 7A beads show a beautiful harmony in color and luster. Especially under directed light, the deep-blue reflection becomes very clearly visible, as also seen in the photos. Due to the combination of South African blue tiger eye, 7A commercial quality and genuine 925 sterling silver, the bracelet has a luxurious yet understated appearance and is suitable as portable mineral jewelry for both women and men.
