Free Form Green & Yellow Tiger Eye Silver Earrings

Tiger's Eye is a durable quartz composite with the usual quartz hardness of 7. It begins as the fibrous blue mineral called crocidolite, which is comprised of iron & sodium. Most of us known crocidolite as asbestos. The transformation begins when quartz becomes imbedded between the fibers of crocidolite. This process will result in one of two gemstones. A blue stone called Hawk's Eye or the golden brown stone called Tiger's Eye. The green in these earrings doesn't photograph well. But there are nice bright green flashes in these earrings. The earrings are 1.25" tall and .68" wide with a 3/4" wire.
