What is the Nazar Boncuk?

The nazar boncuk appellation comes from Turkish, with nazar meaning "evil eye" and boncuk "amulet". The nazar boncuk is a traditional talisman in the shape of a blue and round eye, which would have the power to move away the evil eye, the malicious people, to push back the negative energies and to protect its carrier. The nazar boncuk is widespread in the region between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea such as Turkey (where it is most common), Greece, Armenia, Iran, and Azerbaijan. It is sometimes called "Greek eye" or "Turkish eye".

The Nazar Boncuk is usually composed of concentric circles of dark blue, light blue, white and sometimes yellow and black, forming a stylized representation of the eye. Blue is the dominant color, as it is believed to have the power to repel negative forces.
