Vintage 14k hand wrought Turkish evil eye

I purchased these a while ago on Poshmark. The owner had purchased them in Turkey back in the 90’s. They are gorgeous with a diamond cut pattern and a glass 👁️ invaded. The myth of the evil eye has been around for over 3000 years. What’s most fascinating about the evil eye isn’t its mere longevity, but the fact that its usage has deviated little over the course of millennia. We’re still affixing the evil eye to the sides of our planes in the same way that the Egyptians and Etruscans painted the eye on the prows of their ships to ensure safe passage. It’s still a tradition in Turkey to bring an evil eye token to newborn babies. I rarely wear these earrings so I am offering them to you as an unusual amulet meant to protect you and your possessions from envious individuals.
