Hi TPFers! I somewhat recently got the YG guilloche 5 motif and love it! However, as others have pointed out, it really isn’t an every day piece as it is so prone to scratches. I am now looking for an every day 5 motif to stack with my reg love and sm juc, both in yellow gold. I am looking for a nice neutral, but no MOP due to how delicate it is. Onyx was the obvious choice at first, but I’m not sure that I really love that stone. It’s neutral but a bit harsh for me. I am considering tigers eye as it would go very well with my wardrobe and with all my yellow gold jewelry (I also have a few frivole pieces). I’ve searched the forum for pics but would really appreciate if anyone could share their tigers eye stacked with other YG pieces. Would also love any feedback on the durability. From what I gather on the forum it is pretty hearty. I haven’t had any luck finding it the boutique or even online so any info would be much appreciated!
Tigers eye 5 motif - pics or feedback?

Not mine.. yet 
but here is TE and Carnelian next to YG in case helpful (sorry - not a LOVE/JUC)
I can say that my TE pendant never comes off (shower, sleep, whatever), and it looks exactly the same as when I got it 3 months ago
If you haven’t seen the TE in person, you must must must. The gold shimmers are killer

Also, I absolutely kick myself for not grabbing both of those when I saw them
Wow both are beautiful but the TE is stunning!! It really does pair so well with YG. And glad to hear that your pendent has held up well. I really do hope to see it in person soon. Thank you so much for sharing!Not mine.. yet

Ok, so not the most amazing photos, but here are a few more of TE catching the light 
Hi There
I have both 5 motifs YG Guilloche and TE - whilst (different to others here) i am not a fan for stacking my Alhambra bracelets together - i just want to show these 2 for your comparison. My apology in advance if the reflection was not good coz it was under the dim yellow light.
If you are not a fan of Onyx (like me), definitely you can consider TE or Blue Agate in YG. Unfortunately i don’t have 5 motifs Carnelian so i can’t comment on this.

I love tiger eye especially if you find one with beautiful striations ; I love carnelian too and think it would look beautiful with your yg bracelets but it's more of a pop than neutral.
Just be sure you are ok with the bracelet potentially tangling with the bangles in your stack.

Thank you! I will try to post another picture for the OP.
Simply gorgeous!! This pic is so helpful as these are the two bracelets I would have. I probably would not stack the 5 motifs, but when I remove links it works well with my bangles and doesn’t (usually) get caught. Love the stone you selected, I would be so happy to find one like that!
I am still keeping this photo/video when i first acquired the TE from the store! I hope this may help you in making decision.
FYI, i got my TE first then followed by YG Guilloche couple of weeks later.
I love this guilloche/TE combo! I have been considering buying a 10 motif in tigers eye and wearing it layered with a 10 motif in hammered gold.
