The Evil Eye ("Nazar"), as shown in this decorative plate, is seen all over Turkey. A nazar or evil eye stone (Turkish: nazar boncuğu) is an amulet from ancient mythology that protects against the evil eye. Colourful beads, bracelets, necklaces, anklets, and all manner of decoration may be adorned by this particularly popular symbol, and it is common to see it on almost anything, from babies, horses, doors to cars, cell phones and even airplanes.
The pictures are really wonderful. Is there any way that you can "caption" them? The colors are great! What is the new picture at the top of the blog?
