What are bull’s eye bracelets?
Bull’s eye bracelets are crafted from bull’s eye, a powerful variety of quartz closely related to tiger eye. Sometimes called “red tiger eye,” this stone is formed when tiger eye undergoes natural heat or geological changes, which transform its golden hues into deep red to mahogany tones. Bull’s eye is sourced mainly from South Africa and Western Australia and is treasured for its bold look and energizing properties.
Unique appearance: deep red to mahogany tones with silky luster
Bull’s eye is instantly recognizable for its red-brown to mahogany color and its silky, chatoyant luster. Like tiger eye, it exhibits shimmering light effects that shift across the surface when viewed from different angles. This unique feature makes bull’s eye bracelets visually striking and full of vitality.
