Quick answer
When shopping for a genuine tiger eye bracelet, ask for an explicit materials list, evidence supporting the stone identification, and clear return terms. These are purchasing checks, not confirmation that a tiger eye bracelet is genuine.
The USGS lists glass, plastics, and other materials as substitutes for natural gemstones and notes that simulants are frequently substituted for natural gemstones. That general warning does not establish a tiger eye bracelet's authenticity or a tiger eye-specific counterfeit rate.

What evidence should you ask for?
For a tiger eye bracelet, ask the seller to name the stone rather than relying on a label such as "natural stone." Request the materials list, dimensions, and any available documentation supporting identification.
The supplied IGS quartz facts concern clear quartz, not tiger eye. Those facts do not support a tiger eye bracelet scratch-test threshold. The supplied evidence also does not establish a reliable shimmer or touch test for confirming a tiger eye bracelet.
What price example is available?
The supplied tiger eye bracelet example is Happiness Is, listed at $95 with an 11 mm diameter. The materials list includes tiger eye, strawberry quartz, aquamarine, amethyst, citrine, black rutilated quartz, moss agate, clear quartz, and sterling silver.
Happiness Is is a mixed-stone tiger eye bracelet example, not a benchmark for a single-stone tiger eye bracelet or proof of authenticity based on price. You can also consult tiger eye bracelet reviews when preparing questions for sellers.
What should you check before ordering?
Before ordering a tiger eye bracelet, review the seller's material disclosures and return conditions, and ask how an authenticity concern would be handled. Do not assume that a marketplace or a single-brand shop is safer solely because of the sales channel.
For the Happiness Is tiger eye bracelet, the supplied product listing names the included materials. That supports reporting what the seller lists, not claiming that each component has been independently authenticated.
