Turkish Evil Eye (Silver, 3.5")

Turkish Evil Eye (Silver, 3.5") is a large, handmade nazar charm in the classic blue-glass pattern with a silver-tone rim. At 3.5 inches / 9cm, it's sized to be a statement piece — bold enough to anchor a door, window, or entryway display. Because it's handmade, each piece varies slightly in tone and finish.

Quick facts

About the symbol

The nazar is one of the world's oldest protective folk symbols, carried for thousands of years across Turkey, Greece, and the wider Mediterranean and Middle East. Its deep blue color was historically prized, and the concentric "eye" pattern was believed to catch and turn back an unwanted gaze. It's a cultural symbol shared across many faiths and backgrounds, not tied to one religion. Pair it with more protection and grounding pieces or spiritual home decor.

How to hang it

Use the attached loop to hang it by a doorway, window, or entryway — its larger size makes it easy to spot as a wall or door accent. It also stands out well among other good-luck pieces.

Care

It's handmade glass, so hang it somewhere it won't be knocked or dropped, and dust with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid soaking it in water.
