The evil eye charm is believed to protect against the evil eye, a negative force or curse caused by envy or malevolent intent. The belief in the evil eye is widespread in the Mediterranean, Middle East, and beyond. The evil eye is thought to cause misfortune, illness, or harm, often unintentionally, through a person’s envious gaze or admiration. The charm acts as a protective talisman to deflect this negative energy. In Turkey, the nazar boncuğu is a glass bead, often blue with a concentric eye design, symbolizing protection. Its origins date back to ancient Anatolia, but it is now a prominent cultural symbol. The color blue is associated with protection, as it was historically rare and prized.
