Blue Tiger's Eye: a navy mosaic
The horizontal bands of this slab run in an almost black navy over a dark navy background: pattern and background are hard to tell apart, so the contrast stays low. Fine blue flashes appear in the bands, with the bright polish of the photo. Black completes the palette. Within the slab the mosaic stays even, with little change in pattern. Since each panel is assembled differently, it is best to choose yours from photos of the available slabs.

What buyers ask about Blue Tiger's Eye
Is Blue Tiger's Eye a single stone?
They are pieces assembled by hand: bands of natural tiger's eye fixed with resin onto a backing. The stone is natural; the pattern is built piece by piece and does not come from one continuous vein. Tiger Eyes Extra Blue is another name for the same stone.
How does it differ from Blue and Gold Tiger's Eye?
In its photo, blue and gold tiger's eye adds gold and orange stripes to the dark blue. In this slab's photo, everything stays in blues: a navy blue that is almost black, with fine flashes. The hand assembly is the same across the whole tiger's eye family.
Can Blue Tiger's Eye be backlit?
No. This slab is not translucent: light does not pass through it, and backlighting is not among its finishes. That setup is for stones that let light through, like blue agate based on its real slab. Here the shine comes from the polish.
How do you care for a Blue Tiger's Eye slab?
For daily care, use a soft cloth and water; no solvents and no abrasive cleaners. On a table, hot pots and cups ask for trivets: direct heat is what the resin cannot take.
