David Yurman's Tigers-Eye Collection
You don't see a lot of tiger's-eye these days, especially in jewelry that is considered designer or fine jewelry. Some of the pieces in David Yurman's collection mix tiger's-eye with 18kt gold.

Here's a little info about tiger's-eye from All That Gifts: Tiger eye is quartz that contains oriented fibres of crocidolite that have been replaced by silica.

Tiger eye is displaying chatoyancy (a vertical luminescent band like that of a cat's eye). Tiger eye typically has lustrous alternating yellow or brown bands.


Tiger's-eye is a perfect gemstone to team up with gold since the stone actually has some gold coloration in it. I also like Yurman's use of chain with many of the cabochons and stone beads.
