The Evil Eye is a folk concept that the hostile glance of certain people, gods, animals or mythological figures (depending on the culture) can result in injury, illness or even death. Usually, the victim is unaware of it happening to them and only in hindsight is said “to have received the Evil Eye”. There best way of protection is to wear eye charms that will divert the evil gaze in the first place. From antiquity, lapis lazuli has been worn in the belief that it will ward off evil.

Three evil eye charms are linked together to make a sparkling two-toned dangly earring with a single lapis teardrop attached.

Lapis lazuli is one of the oldest opaque gemstones in history--more than 6,500 years! This rich blue stone includes tiny flecks of mica, like a night sky full of stars. Since the earliest of times, lapis lazuli has been associated with royalty, strength and courage, wisdom and intellect, friendship and truth.
