amber eyes
Warm tawny irises
Amber eyes are eyes with a golden-yellow or copper-toned iris, warmer than brown and distinct from green or hazel.
The color is relatively rare in humans but common in wolves, cats, and owls—associations that give amber eyes an exotic or predatory quality in description: Her amber eyes caught the firelight.
Romance novels and fantasy fiction favor the term.
