This modern tiger's eye pendant catches the eye with a silky band of light that glides across the stone's surface with every turn of the head. The cabochon cut brings out this cat's eye effect, and the warm, brownish-gold hue streaked with deep black settles into a distinct, irregular pattern. In old jewellery tradition, tiger's eye was associated with stability and inner balance, which pairs well with the modern, geometric form of the setting.

We choose every stone for this pendant based on its colour and structural clarity, since these are what determine the strength of the cat's eye effect. Silver and precious metals are rising in price, and a well-chosen stone of this quality is getting harder to find, which is why buying at this price makes sense today. The pendant is set in refined sterling silver 925 of high alloy purity, additionally coated with a layer of rhodium - a hard metal resistant to scratching that keeps its shine for a long time and protects the surface from tarnishing. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark, attesting to the origin of the metal.

The stone's large size means the pendant looks good at the neckline, especially under a smooth shirt or blazer in an office outfit. A muted beige or grey shirt lets the colour of the tiger's eye fully stand out along the neckline. This also works well with a boat neckline, which reveals the collarbone area without competing with the stone. The pendant weighs 2.8 grams, so it wears lightly throughout the working day.
