Picture tiger's eye after it has been through fire. That's bull's eye: a warm brown shot with red and copper flashes that light up as soon as you tilt it. The color is deeper and richer than classic gold, which gives the stone a bold character. Our bull's eye jewelry plays on that warmth and shimmer, in pieces with real personality.
How to recognize bull's eye
Bull's eye is a fibrous quartz, close to tiger's eye. Its red-brown color often comes from heating, which oxidizes the iron inside. Like its cousins, it shows chatoyancy, a band of light that moves across the surface. It's hard (7 on the Mohs scale), so it's perfect for rings, bracelets and necklaces you wear every day.
Bull's eye meaning
Bull's eye is the stone of courage and self-confidence, worn for the nerve to keep moving forward. It's also a stone of grounding and protection, of stability and quiet strength. Its warm color ties it to drive and self-assurance.
Bull's eye bracelets, necklaces and rings
On your wrist, bull's eye warms up an outfit with its copper sheen. As a necklace or ring, it adds character. It also pairs well with its cousins: see our tiger's eye jewelry, our hawk's eye jewelry and our Self-Confidence collection.
Caring for your bull's eye
Bull's eye is sturdy. Clean it with lukewarm water and mild soap, and keep it out of strong sun for long periods and away from harsh chemicals, which could dull its shine. Some people also follow the old habit of leaving it out overnight in the moonlight to recharge its energy, an easy ritual with no rules.
