Necklace "Evil Eye"
Necklace "Evil Eye"
The eye that watches so you don't have to. In the old belief it turns envy back on itself, and this one has been given everything it needs for the job: a strand of cobalt glass, moonstone, rose quartz and clear crystal; little glass crescents; a raw blue crystal point; and silver chains that fall from the eye like rain off a roof, tipped with silver spikes.
The eye itself is bead embroidery — navy and white beads laid one by one around a dark pupil, lashes of black crystal, a silver rope around the lid.
One of a kind — this is the only one. Arrives gift-ready.
Glass and natural stone beads, bead-embroidered pendant, stainless chains and clasp. Recommendations: do not wet, protect from chemicals and perfume, store flat. Handcrafted; measurements are approximate.

The tale of this motif
The tale of this motif
Folk motifs carry meanings older than writing — poppies guard the home, wheat calls the harvest, birds watch over travellers.

Beads for the night side
Black glass has a long memory: Victorian mourning jewellery was strung from it, and a black-ground gerdan makes every red burn brighter. Our skulls, bats and serpents are beaded exactly like the poppies — the same seed beads, the same hands in Ukraine — only the motifs have changed.
