Evil Eye Protection Necklace

Evil eye protection necklace, set with sparkling crystals.

The pendant measures 2.5cm high and 3cm wide (1x1 1/4 inches).

The pendant is attached to a solid stainless steel necklace, measuring 45cm, 18". I added a wire wrapped amethyst and peridot bead right next to the clasp.

"The evil eye is a look that is believed by many cultures to be able to cause injury or bad luck for the person at whom it is directed for reasons of envy or dislike. The term also refers to the power attributed to certain persons of inflicting injury or bad luck by such an envious or ill-wishing look." (Wikipedia).

For millennia, people have believed in the power of the evil eye and have protected themselves against it by wearing a talisman in the shape of an eye and/or a blue bead, representing an eye.
