    About Eagle Eye Stone

    Eagle Eye Stone is a cool, stormy cousin of Tiger’s Eye, displaying silky bands of grey, blue and white that shimmer like an eagle’s wing in flight. Its chatoyancy comes from fibres of crocidolite embedded in quartz, which shift and move with changing light. This stone formed when quartz replaced fibrous asbestos in metamorphic rocks, capturing a luminous eye that seems to watch over you. Eagle Eye invites keen perception, clarity and higher perspective, reminding you to soar above daily worries and see the bigger picture.
