Description from the seller

This exceptional tiger's eye sphere impresses with its powerful chromatic drama, composed of a warm golden-yellow, a deep reddish-brown, and dark, almost black lines. Bold, fluid bands dynamically cover the entire surface, creating a strong, dynamic aesthetics.

The iridescence is particularly fascinating—the typical silky sparkle of tiger's eye. Depending on the viewing angle, golden reflections move across the surface and make the structure appear alive. The golden parts look almost metallic, while the pinkish areas give the work additional depth and warmth.

The polishing precision brings out each layer and enhances the interaction between shine and structure. Thanks to its spherical shape, light is distributed evenly, so the fibers and characteristic bands stand out especially impressively.

A striking collectible object of exceptional quality — powerful in expression and color intensity, with a rare intensity of the chatoyant effect and an inimitable natural dynamism.

Note: The base shown is not included in the delivery but can be purchased separately.
