Tiger's-eye is a very popular gemstone that displays a chatoyancy (cat's-eye) when a polished stone is moved back and forth in incident light. It is a quartz gemstone, usually amber to brown in color, that forms when fibers of the mineral crocidolite are replaced by silica. When polished, it's silky luster creates a beautiful chatoyant effect of moving layers of brown and yellow lines and waves.
