Description
This lovely Tiger's Eye Sphere from China contains bands of fibrous, iridescent material ranging in color from root-beer brown to deep umber, with prominent bands of multi-hued luminous gold. Tiger's Eye is a member of the quartz family with red jasper & hematite within which is what gives it the unique color and chatoyancy and silky lustre.
This gorgeous, powerful Tiger's Eye sphere comes with its own sphere stand, as the one shown in the picture on this page. This beautiful stone exhibits a characteristic brilliant watery reflection on its surface as light changes or one's point of view shifts. This is known to gemologists as "chatoyancy". 
Mineralogical and Metaphysical Properties of Tiger's Eye
Tiger's Eye specimens exhibit a characteristic brilliant watery reflection on its surface as light changes or one's point of view shifts. This is known to gemologists as "chatoyancy".
Coined from the French "chat oeil," meaning "cat's eye," chatoyancy occurs when light strikes fibrous material inside the stone, as in tiger eye quartz, or when light reflects from bands of fibrous inclusions or cavities within the stone, as in cat's eye chrysoberyl.
"The effect can be likened to the sheen off a spool of silk; the mobile, wavering reflection always being perpendicular to the direction of the fibres," according to the Wikipedia.
Tiger's Eye, or Magnesium Iron Silicate Hydroxide, forms when silica quartz invades a serpentine or chrysotile formation, in a mineral deposit, over long periods of time, forming bands of long fibrous inclusions which create the characteristic shiny, highly reflective, striated surface that makes this gemstone a favorite of jewelers and mineral collectors.
Serpentine has been used by Lightworkers and crystal healers and meditators to facilitate the awakening of Kundalini energy, and to connect the heart chakra, associated with the color green, and the crown chakra, associated with the color gold.
Meditators can use Tiger's Eye Egg to help direct Universal Life Force energies to their heart and especially to their crown chakra, where the gemstone will facilitate the rising of the energy from the base of the spine to the top of the head.
Meditators can place this Tiger's Eye Sphere on their altar, where it makes a striking centerpiece or offering to the Divine, and use their intent to direct the energies of the Tiger's Eye to their heart and especially to their crown chakra, where the gemstone will facilitate the rising of the Universal Life Force Energy from the base of the spine to the top of the head.
This Tiger's Eye Sphere can also be held in the hand during meditation for the same purposes, and crystal healers can use this egg to clear and energize any or all of the chakras during energy healing sessions.
