Its blue colouring comes from the crocidolite fibres, and the parallel fibrous structure produces the chatoyancy, the silky cat's eye effect; the material is also called Hawk's Eye. The asbestos-replacement process is complete, so the crocidolite fibres are fully replaced by silica and the material is safe to handle. Tiger Eye was worn by Roman soldiers as a protective talisman and used in traditional practices across parts of Asia and Africa. Principal sources include South Africa, India, Australia, the United States, and Brazil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuturaSol Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity.
