Just like our regular flying pig this is a customer favourite, this super cute, tigers eye flying pig complete with wings and a cheeky grin. Around 25 mm by 13 mm it is an ideal size to keep in your purse or pocket and enjoy not only the benefits of tigers eye but also remind people than maybe one day a pig may fly.
Tiger’s eye is a golden to red-brown stone of quartz. Tiger’s eye gain their silky, lustrous appearance from the quartz crystals and altered amphibole fibres that have mostly turned into limonite. Found in Australia, Myanmar, India, Namibia, South Africa and the USA.
Thought to be a symbol of protection, strength, confidence, bravery and good fortune, Roman soldiers wore this stone on their breastplates when they went to battle for protection. They believed the stone would give them the strength and patience of an actual tiger. The gem was also worn as protection keeping, the wearer safe against curses.

I personally select every crystal and stone for its shape, colour, and exceptional quality at a fair price. You’ll receive the exact specimen shown in the picture. Due to variations across digital platforms, the colour you see may differ slightly from the actual stone. Therefore, slight discrepancies are possible.
Each of my specimens comes with its own collectors card with information on its properties and lore.
