MEANING OF THE TURQUOISE EYE

Its Turkish name for protection against the evil eye and envy is nazar boncuk (Nazar-evil eye, boncuk-amulet).

Although it can take various patterns and be applied in different designs, the turquoise eye is generally composed of a circle, sphere, or drop shape in dark blue with a white and light blue eye overlay. The turquoise eye amulet appeared during the development of glassmaking in the Mediterranean around the 16th century BC. Legend has it that fair-haired blue-eyed men could be malevolent and send negative vibrations through their gaze. When the turquoise eye breaks or cracks, it has fulfilled its protective function and must be replaced.
