Evil Eye Bracelet | Everyday Warding

Description
Adjustable cord bracelets carrying the nazar, in several designs. Pick the one you will actually keep on, because that is the only quality that matters in a protective piece.

Wearing the eye rather than hanging it is the older habit of the two. Bracelets and anklets with eye beads turn up throughout the eastern Mediterranean and across the Levant and North Africa, and the reason is practical: a charm at the wrist goes where you go and shows when you reach for something, which is when most of the looking happens.

The theory has not changed in five thousand years. Envy travels by looking, and the charm gives the look somewhere else to land. It gets worn for that, and by plenty of people who just like it, and the tradition has never had a problem with either.
