Polished tigereye 10 grams (0.35 ounce) of different sizes and shapes. The average size is approximately .5 cm x 2.2 cm (.25" x 1").
Honey-colored stones have been used to imitate the much higher valued cat's eye chrysoberyl (cymophane), but the overall effect is unconvincing. Artificial fibre optic glass is a common imitation of tiger's eye, and is produced in a wide range of colours. Tiger's eye comes primarily from South Africa and east Asia.
