Product Description:
Add mysterious, sophisticated elegance with a smooth, polished glow to your jewelry designs with our A Grade Hawk's Eye Smooth Round Beads Strands. These beautiful beads feature natural hawk's eye – a stunning variety of the tiger eye family, prized for its deep, misty blue-gray to silvery-blue and charcoal tones, accompanied by a signature chatoyancy – a luminous, floating band of light that moves across the surface like a cat's eye or a beam of moonlight on dark water. The smooth round shape offers a classic, versatile silhouette that showcases the stone's natural color and mesmerizing optical effect.
Hawk's eye, also known as blue tiger eye, is the natural, unheated form of tiger eye. It forms when crocidolite fibers are replaced by silica, creating a fibrous structure that produces the chatoyant effect. Unlike golden tiger eye, hawk's eye has not been heat-treated, preserving its original cool blue-gray tones. The A Grade designation indicates good quality with consistent chatoyancy, even color, and smooth polish. The natural stone is carefully shaped into round beads – a classic, timeless shape – then polished to a high-gloss finish that enhances its silky luster and floating light band.
These strands are a favorite among professional jewelry designers, crystal enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a stone of vision, intuition, and protection. The smooth round shape adds a classic, versatile elegance to any project. The beads are available in four consistent sizes – four, six, eight, and ten millimeters – allowing for uniform or graduated designs. Each strand measures approximately thirty-eight centimeters in length, strung and knotted for safe shipping.

About Hawk's Eye:
