🔹 Care tips and durability of this tiger's eye skull pendant
This natural tiger's eye skull pendant, carved from dense fibrous quartz, boasts excellent mechanical resistance. Tiger's eye has a hardness of approximately 7 on the Mohs scale, making it a robust stone suitable for daily wear.
Its compact structure and siliceous nature give it good scratch resistance, superior to many gemstones. However, like any mineral sculpture, this tiger's eye skull pendant deserves measured attention to preserve its polish and chatoyant effect.
