This rare gemstone material is known as Arizona Pietersite because of its chaytoyant cat's eye effect. It has also been called Arizona Tigereye. Cabochons cut from this material seem to glow with their own internal light.

The gem material is actually Serpentine with Chrysotile fibers and comes in several varities-from gold to rootbeer to silver flash, and from green to brown Serpentine.

This stone was produced when water from magmas changed igneous rocks. It is found in a very remote and rugged area in the Arizona desert and is difficult to cut. We custom cut only the best rough material with lots of flash.
