The Friendship Stone Review and Giveaway


The Friendship Stone is a unique and individual Tiger’s Eye friendship gift,

each stone with its quirky way of reacting to light and its own personality –
just like people! The Friendship Stone serves as an important reminder
of the bond of friendship - something of yourself that you can leave with
someone else; a meaningful friendship gift above price, as unique as the way you feel
about each special friend you have.


The Friendship Stone might be your introduction to a new friend; young or old; a gift to someone you love or a  friendly gesture to a stranger - a perfect symbol of friendship that can be looked at and touched to inspire all the positive emotions a good friend can give…

The Friendship Stone is a small, natural and perfect reminder that wherever we are, our friends are connected with us, encouraging and looking out for us: unbreakable, endurable friendships that will last forever and be as
beautiful when they are old as they are today.


The Friendship Stone is a Tiger's Eye semi-precious gemstone,
made up of crystal deposits of quartz and a fibrous blue mineral called
crocidolite. While in the earth, these crystals condense simultaneously
from hot-mineral rich fluids coursing through tiny cracks in the rock that
grow and fill it. The combination of the two crystals as well as the crocidolite
fibers help form the Chatoyancy effect the Tiger's Eye is famous for, that
which causes the stones look to change when turned.


Every beautiful Friendship Stone begins its journey as a raw variegated Tiger’s Eye in the South African soil. The stones are naturally tumbled in a stone-on-stone process and carefully hand-sorted three times. Each stone is carefully and meticulously handpicked for its own natural beauty and luminosity. The Friendship Stone is a perfect reminder of our connection with friends, our ability to change our perspective to find the positive, and a unique way to share with other people. The Friendship Stones are not artificially edged, shaped, colored or processed.

10% of profits from The Friendship Stone product line go to the villages where the stones are sourced to help support these wonderfully warm and friendly people to tangibly improve their lives. The Friendship Stone generates more than just friendship – it can extend a helping hand to the people who need it: the perfect way to close the circle of giving.

I gave my friendship stone to my teen son. He is getting older and I am not always sure what to get him. I gave it to him as a just because gift. He liked it. I caught him a couple time this week holding it. He keeps it in his pocket. I love the idea behind the friendship stone. The stone is just beautiful.

 A friendship stone would make a great Valentines Day present for your BFF or child.

I found out that the Friendship Stone is a Tiger's Eye semi-precious gemstone, which is formed of "crystal deposits of quartz and a fibrous blue mineral called
crocidolite." Thank you for the chance to win!

I liked the quote on the website by Aristotle: "Without friends no one would choose to live,
though he had all other goods." Thanks.

The traveling friendship stone is such a fun idea. I'd love to pass one on and see where it goes.

I loved hearing how it started as one friend connecting to another by sharing the Tigers Eye stone she had collected in South Africa...and from that, they donate a portion to a South African charity.
