Turkish Evil Eye Jewelry

By Nersel

A nazar or evil eye stone (Turkish: nazar boncuğu) is an amulet from ancient mythology that protects against the evil eye.

It consists of concentric circles (from inside out: dark blue, light blue (or yellow), white, dark blue). Therefore it is sometimes called “Blue Eye”.

Known as nazar (Turkish: nazar boncuğu or nazarlık), this talisman is particularly common in Turkey, found in or on houses and vehicles or worn as beads.

The evil eye is a widely distributed element of folklore, in which it is believed that the envy elicited by the good luck of fortunate people may result in their misfortune, whether it is envy of material possessions including livestock, or of beauty, health, or offspring. The perception of the nature of the phenomenon, its causes, and possible protective measures, varies between different cultures. In some forms, it is the belief that some people can bestow a curse on victims by the malevolent gaze of their magical eye. The most common form, however, attributes the cause to envy, with the envious person casting the evil eye doing so unintentionally. Also the effects on victims vary. Some cultures report afflictions with bad luck; others believe the evil eye can cause disease, wasting away, and even death.
