About Red Tiger's Eye
Red Tiger’s Eye, sometimes called “Dragon’s Eye,” is a richly colored variety of the classic golden Tiger’s Eye, prized for its deep reddish-brown chatoyance and silky luster. This striking stone forms when crocidolite fibers are replaced by quartz and later oxidized or heat-treated, producing its warm red hues and shimmering light movement across the surface.
When polished, Red Tiger’s Eye displays a captivating, reflective sheen known as chatoyancy—a glowing, linear band of light that shifts as the stone is moved. Its colors range from deep mahogany to fiery copper-red, often with subtle golden undertones. Found mainly in South Africa and Western Australia, this stone is popular for cabochons, beads, and decorative carvings. Each piece embodies the dynamic energy and natural beauty of its golden counterpart, with a bold and fiery twist.
