About The Material These Picks Are Made From:

Plectrums made from stone have been used traditionally throughout the world since the dawn of stringed instruments millennia ago. Tiger's Eye stone (also called simply Tiger Eye stone) is a chatoyant gemstone that is usually a metamorphic rock with a golden to yellow-brown color and a refined luster. Yellow Tiger's Eye is the most common type, and whenever an item is referred to as simply Tiger's Eye this is likely the color being referenced, however red and blue variations also exist. Red Tiger's Eye is occasionally called Dragon's Eye and the blue variant is sometimes known as Hawk's Eye.

As members of the quartz group, all colors of Tiger's Eye gain their radiant appearance from the parallel intergrowth of quartz crystals and altered amphibole fibers that have mostly turned into limonite. The most striking feature of Tiger's Eye is the chatoyant effect (also colloquially called the cat's eye effect), which means that the appearance of the stone changes as you view it from different angles, creating a stunning visual appearance.

Yellow Tiger's Eye features more of a yellow-golden color than the Red Tiger's Eye variety. Although they are generally the same in mineral composition, Red Tiger's Eye changes color to a redder hue due to having been exposed to more heat than the yellow variety. Yellow Tiger's Eye has been known since ancient times, however Red Tiger's Eye was discovered more recently and is considerably rarer.

Yellow Tiger's Eye is a hard and durable stone, with a 6.5-7 rating on the Mohs hardness scale, which makes it a fantastic and long lasting material for use in guitar picks.
