This iron tiger eye can be worn several ways, and the right one depends on the person. At 17.4 carats it is weighty enough for a statement ring, a pendant, or even a cufflink-style mount.

For a ring, think of a broad silver bezel, with the stone sitting low so it does not catch on clothing. For a pendant, a simple loop with a plain cap lets the band of light show from the front, and the weight hangs well on a sturdy chain. Hardness is 7 on the Mohs scale, enough for ordinary wear, so a pendant sees the least trouble.
