Here is a stone that works best as the centrepiece of a design rather than an afterthought. At 40.85 carats, this iron tiger eye can carry a heavy silver mount or hang as a pendant without looking lost.

Think first about the form. A ring would need a wide band and a secure bezel, and the finished piece will feel substantial on the hand. A pendant is simpler: a plain cap, a strong bail, and a chain that matches the weight. Either way, the stone's hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale means the surface will stay presentable with ordinary care. If you would like a custom silver ring setting, WhatsApp us on +92 308 887 3888.

The stone is listed at Rs. 6,150, about Rs. 151 per carat, and carries the reference GS-IR-0015. It is a natural iron tiger eye, and the family is generally sold without enhancement, though we can tell you what we know about this piece if you ask.
