The warm, honey hue of tiger's eye draws the eye in this minimalist bracelet for the wrist. The faceted cut breaks the surface of the stone into narrow planes that bring out the silky sheen typical of this quartz variety - in one moment you see deep brown, in the next a golden flash shifting with the movement of the hand. Three tiger's eye stones set in a simple rhythm need no extra embellishment - all the attention stays on their colour. In old jewellery craft, tiger's eye was linked to stability and inner renewal.

Each of the three stones is assessed for the pattern of its bands and the depth of its colour before it ever reaches the silver setting - hence the exceptional quality at a price that stays reasonable. Good stones are becoming rarer, since their availability is limited by nature itself, and silver is rising in price on the market just as steadily. The bracelet is made of refined European sterling silver 925, coated with a layer of rhodium that protects the surface from tarnishing and scratches - the metal's shine lasts long without extra care. The alloy is pure, free of harmful additives, so contact with skin causes no irritation even after many hours of wear. The piece is signed with the French maker's mark, which establishes the origin of the piece and is registered with the assay office in France.

The bracelet measures 17 cm and has an adjustable 4 cm extension, letting it be fitted to a narrower or wider wrist. In summer it looks great under the short sleeve of a linen dress in light beige or ecru - the honey colour of the stone pairs well with natural fabrics. It also works well with the rolled-up cuff of a white shirt, where the tiger's eye becomes a warm accent against the cool white. This is a bracelet made for wearing in motion - while writing, gesturing, holding a cup of coffee - wherever the stone has a chance to catch the light.
