Adjustable Bracelet Red | Evil Eye & Fatima Hand

Description
A red cord bracelet carrying blue eye beads and a hamsa charm, on a sliding knot that adjusts to any wrist.

The red cord is not a color choice, it is a third protective element. Red thread tied at the wrist appears independently in Jewish practice, in Hindu practice as the kalava or mauli, in Slavic folk custom, and across Latin America as the pulsera roja against mal de ojo. The details differ and the instruction does not: red at the wrist, against being looked at.

So this piece is three traditions stacked, and the stacking is itself traditional. Folk protection has never been purist about where a working symbol comes from.

What You're Getting

• Cord: Red, adjustable sliding knot
• Charms: Glass evil eye beads with a Fatima Hand
• Symbols: Red thread, nazar and hamsa

How to Wear It

• Wear it on the left wrist if you keep the tradition that says so.
• Traditionally it should be tied on by somebody else. Worth doing if you have the chance.
• Let it wear out rather than replacing it early. That is the custom with cord.
