Small, dark dots, lines, or patches in Rubies are caused by microscopic amounts of carbon trapped in the ruby’s crystal lattice as it formed deep underground.  They can be surface or internal and occur naturally during crystallization when the ruby encounters pockets of carbon-bearing material or gases.  A few small carbon spots may add character and not significantly affect value, but large or numerous spots can reduce transparency and clarity.

Tiger's Eye typically exhibits a rich golden to reddish-brown color with a silky luster. The distinctive chatoyant effect resembles the movement of a cat's eye, giving the gemstone its name.  The chatoyancy in Tiger's Eye is caused by the reflection of light off the parallel fibrous inclusions within the stone. This creates a captivating optical effect resembling the eye of a tiger.

With a hardness of 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, Tiger's Eye is a durable gemstone that can withstand everyday wear: however, it can still be susceptible to damage from harsh chemicals or extreme heat.

Tiger's Eye is associated with protection, courage, and prosperity. It is believed to enhance focus, clarity, and practical thinking, making it a popular choice for those seeking balance and insight.
