The traditional blue "lucky eye" is an ancient good luck symbol still very popular in Turkey. Masterglass makers master the skill in making very fancy ones.
It is said the symbol protects against getting the negativite energy of others - i.e. the "evil eye" is a look of jealously, envy or malevolence etc from others; such a look can possibly cause pain, injury, or bad luck to anyone on the receiving end.
The Hamsa - the symbol depicting the open right hand, is used as a sign of protection in many societies throughout history. The Hamsa is believed to represent blessings, power and strength, and is seen as potent in deflecting the evil eye.
