PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Nellite Tigers Eye Standing Display Pieces
Nellite Tigers Eye combines the chatoyant beauty of Tigers Eye with Quartz, often mislabeled as a jasper but more accurately a Silicate mineral related to Pietersite and Tigers Eye. Sourced primarily from regions like South Africa, this stone features a golden to yellow-brown Tigers Eye core with its signature shimmering, fibrous bands, interwoven with a milky white microcrystalline quartz matrix that creates a three-dimensional, translucent effect.
