Evil Eye Amulet - Solid Gold & Montana Sapphire

According to the Encyclopedia Brittanica, "belief in the evil eye is ancient and ubiquitous; it occurred in ancient Greece and Rome, in Jewish, Islamic, Buddhist, and Hindu traditions, and in indigenous, peasant, and other folk societies it has persisted throughout the world into modern times" - the amulet depicting the eye is the protection charm worn to protect oneself from the malevolent evil eye; as our ancestors have done for millenia. Keep your juju good, your aura clear, and the bad spirits away!

I've handmade this amulet from scratch in solid, recycled 10 karat yellow gold using ancient goldsmithing techniques and I've kept all the beautiful marks of the hand-forging process intact rather than polishing them away. The amulet is set with a cornflower blue, natural Montana sapphire and hand-engraved to create the details of the eye. I absolutely love this little talisman. You can purchase the charm alone or the charm with chain. The chain is a classic cable chain in solid 10k gold, finished with a spring ring - choose from 16 or 18 inches. Please note if you choose to purchase a chain I will need an additional 1-2 weeks to fulfill your order.

All my work is handmade using traditional goldsmithing, stone-setting, and hand-engraving techniques, with my own two hands and a lot of heart and soul. Each North Star order comes ready for gift-giving. If you have any questions about this piece or my work in general, please don't hesitate to contact me.
