When culture and fashion have crossed paths, there have been few symbols that have survived longer than the evil eye. With a rich history and strong symbolism that has been a part of many cultures, continents, and religions continues to awe its wearers to this day. Evil eye jewellery is not a passing trend, it’s a convergence of history, protection, and fashion.
Whether worn as a subtle charm on an arm bracelet or a dramatic statement piece pendant, evil eye jewellery is about more than looks. The jewellery symbolizes self expression and protection. A result of ancient origins and modern reinterpretations, the evil eye sits perfectly in the 21st century fashion, tradition and expression.
What Is the Evil Eye?
Evil eye is a strong old amulet that also implies protection. “Evil eye,” in folklore, is an unfavourable wish often motivated by envy or jealousy intended to harm, misfortune, or ill fate on the thing being looked at. The superstition is widespread among a colossal array of cultures, especially in the region around the Mediterranean Sea, Middle East, Africa, and South Asia.
The evil eye symbol often depicted as a radiant blue eye keeps away negative energy and deflects it back upon the giver, and protects the wearer. The principle is simple but powerful; it understands, rebounds, and protects.
What is the History and Origin of Evil Eye Jewellery?
The origin of the evil eye dates back over 2,600 years, and evil eye mentions appear in ancient Greece and Rome, where its powers were written about by philosophers like Plutarch. The people in these old civilizations believed the evil eye would cause physical and spiritual injury to the jealous.
From there, the phenomenon spread across empires and continents, taking hold in many cultures. In Turkey, the nazar boncugu (blue eye bead) is a home and office fixture. In the Middle East, evil eye charms are occasionally integrated into furniture or jewellery. Whereas in India, black beads and strings are worn to ward off “buri nazar”, or evil eye. Similarly, within Latin cultures in Latin America, the condition of “mal de ojo” is not unheard of, and particularly occurs amongst families that have young children.
Although evil eye styles and materials change over time, its function continues in the same direction: repel and entice good fortune. Evil eye trinkets nowadays are an interdisciplinary blend between superstition’s early days and today’s contemporary trends.
