The "Evil Eye" is a well-known folk belief that someone may mentally exert an evil impact upon someone else either willingly or even without realising it. Belief in the "Evil Eye" has very ancient origins and it has led to the appearance of the amulet which we are going to introduce to you: THE TURKISH EYE.
Broadly speaking the belief in the Evil Eye holds it that bad feelings of human beings are expelled towards the outside with more or less intensity through the eyes which are the most expressive and obvious part of the body. Nowadays parapsychological studies have ascertained the truthfulness of such a fact - that the Evil Eye is a reality. In order to avoid or to deflect such mischievous power our ancestors would employ some means to counteract it, and they started by wearing an eye-shaped bead.

This amulet has been designed in a decorative and beautiful form so as to be hung somewhere in one's home - of course this is a typical Turkish Eye without any additional emblems.
