🧿Evil Eye Collection🧿

New!...bracelets and a choker feat Black Jasper, Lapis Lazuli & Hematite.

Though often dubbed as 'the evil eye', the ocular amulet is actually the charm meant to ward off the true evil eye: a curse transmitted through a malicious glare, usually one inspired by envy.

🧿

In ancient Egypt, the Eye of Horus, also known as a Wadjet pendant, was buried with pharaohs to protect them in the afterlife. While the Egyptian Eye of Horus is a similar symbol of protection and good health, the Greek evil eye talisman specifically protects against malevolent gazes. A blue or green eye can also be found on some forms of the Hamsa Hand an apotropaic hand-shaped talisman against the evil eye found in West Asia.

The eye symbol is so deeply embedded in culture that, in spite of its potentially pagan connotations, it even finds a place within religious texts, including the Bible (Matt 6:22-23) and the Quran.
