Wild Horses

Wild horses and burros are living symbols of the historic and pioneer spirit of the West and contribute to the diversity of life forms within the Nation and enrich the lives of the American people.

"I believe, as do so many of my fellow Americans, that the wild horse is an irreplaceable national treasure. It would be a tragic mistake to allow this noble creature to disappear from our western landscape."

                                                        — Robert Redford

 

10% of the proceeds of this design will be donated to the American Wild Horse Preservation Campaign

Tiger Eye Facts, Folklore and Description

Look into the eye of a magnificent tiger. That creature's animal magnetism gleams in this golden-yellow, deeply banded gemstone. Tiger eye with its bands resembles an eye of tiger, so it is received its name due to this similarity.

Tiger eye has a rich yellow and golden brown stripes, with a fine golden lustre when polished and is actually silicified crocidolite in quartz. When it's cut into cabochons, that iridescent undulating luster (chatoyancy) is as hypnotic as the eye of an actual tiger. They're like tiny bits of dynamite with a tiger inside them. That's one powerful combination!

Tiger's-eye is said to be a stone for the mind and is used for focusing the mind to bring clear thinking and insight. It will cause the mind to have feeling of oneness and feel more direct in all thoughts.

Tiger eye relieves high blood pressure and is very helpful in the presence of following diseases: bronchial asthmakidney, rheumatic heart disease, otitis and psoriasis.

When used in jewelry the tiger eye may bring good luck and protection from the evil eye to the wearer during travel, strengthens convictions and confidence.
