Knotted Blue and Yellow Tiger's Eye Bead Necklace

A well-constructed beaded necklace featuring round, polished gemstones that exhibit the characteristic chatoyancy of Tiger's Eye. The necklace is unique for its use of mixed stones, primarily highlighting Blue Tiger's Eye (also known as Falcon's Eye) with significant bands of golden-yellow and brown typical of traditional Tiger's Eye. The beads measure approximately 8mm to 10mm in diameter and are individually knotted on a dark blue silk or nylon cord, a high-quality finishing technique that prevents the beads from rubbing against one another and ensures the security of the piece if the cord were to break. Each bead displays natural variation, with some appearing almost entirely dark blue-black while others show vibrant amber banding. The necklace is secured with a modern gold-plated or gold-filled lobster claw clasp and jump ring. The overall condition appears excellent, with no visible chips to the stone surfaces or fraying to the knots. The style is contemporary to late 20th century, focused on the natural beauty of semi-precious quartz gemstones. A small white string tag is attached, common for retail or inventory purposes, indicating it may be for sale or cataloged.
