Evil Eye Jewellery: A Gift with Meaning
It is said that 'the eye is the window to the soul' as it often reveals our true emotions to the outside world. But there is one ‘look’ that is shrouded in mystery and folklore: The Evil Eye.

It is said that 'the eye is the window to the soul' as it often reveals our true emotions to the outside world. But there is one ‘look’ that is shrouded in mystery and folklore: The Evil Eye.

Take your mind back to a trip to Greece or Turkey where you will have surely encountered an abundance of glass beads, amulets and ceramics decorated with the Evil Eye charm. But what is it about this hypnotic symbol that has transcended cultures and continents to become a jewellery trend without borders?

Perfect for layering, this Mini Evil Eye Biography Pendant Necklace in 18 carat Yellow Gold Vermeil on adjustable chain necklace features a turquoise gemstone pupil and contrasting white sapphire pavé. Pair with a longer length necklace for on-trend styling.

Punctuate a cool bracelet stack with a pop of colour. Get the look by teaming our Evil Eye Kula Bracelet in 18 carat Rose Gold Vermeil with a selection of friendship bracelets from our Biography collection.
With a history dating back to ancient civilisations, the Evil Eye charm has traditionally been adopted by many cultures as a symbol of protection against harm where envy or malevolence is inflicted on one person by another. A positive force, the charm helps the bearer to deflect bad feeling or evil away.

At Astley Clarke we also like to interpret it as a symbol of wisdom as this intriguing tradition teaches us not to be envious of others’ success, but instead to achieve fulfilment through our own endeavours.

Add edge to your look by wearing the Evil Eye motif on your index finger in a vertical stack. Alternatively, it is striking enough to wear on its own.

 

Available as singles or as pairs our Tiny Biography Evil Eye Stud Earrings come in three colourways. An ideal partner for a minimalist earring stack that is playful yet refined.

Offering tokens and other talismans have long been a way of ensuring a close friend or family member receives luck and protection while away from home. Nowadays that same touching gesture comes in the form of beautifully handcrafted jewellery.

A new take on the friendship bracelet, traditional symbols make the perfect gift for that special someone. Charms that shine and intrigue, you can now adorn your ears, neck or wrists with talismans in silver, yellow gold vermeil or rose gold vermeil, or offer them as meaningful gifts.
