This is a larger Golden Tiger Eye Crystal Skull. Shown next to a US quarter coin for size comparison. It has been here charging with Synergy for 12+ years. It has some weird and cool organic looking patterns plus LOTS of pretty shimmery areas visible throughout from different angles. It looks especially nice in bright sunlight. Layers/stripes/bands of silvery HEMATITE are spread throughout, including a "halo" in the top of the head! Darker yellow/yellow-ish brown Yellow Jasper areas are mixed in as well.
As Tiger Eye is fibrous, it is possible for it to have some small organic spots here and there from inclusions that were close to the surface as the stone was polished. ALL inclusions present are natural parts of the stone. A very special addition to any collection. MUCH nicer in person than the photos can show, I guarantee it. Check out how it works with subtle energies below!
It weighs about 5.9oz and measures approximately 60mm (2 3/8" inches) long X 40mm (just over 1 1/2" inches) tall. Code-071224-21923
