It will not fade or lose its shine over time. Scratched steel can be easily brushed or polished back to a new look.

WHAT IS A BAD EYE?

The evil eye is a concept that is widely used in different cultures around the world, symbolising a harmful look of envy or hostility. This belief is deeply rooted in the superstitious beliefs and traditions of many communities and has been linked to witchcraft and envy-induced malevolence. Evil eye rituals and protections, such as amulets and charms, have evolved to protect individuals and communities from the effects of this invisible threat.

Historically, the evil eye has been described as a powerful, staring gaze that can cause misfortune or even death to its subject. Often, beliefs about the evil eye are strongest in pastoralist communities and among tribal peoples, where internal harmony and protection from external threats have been central to the community. The fear of the evil eye and related means of protection have remained strong over the centuries and continue to find a place in modern societies, highlighting humanity's profound need to protect itself and its loved ones from unseen forces.

Depending on the culture, evil eye amulets or jewellery can offer protection and bring good luck to those who wear them. In this way, jewellery can be used as a symbolic means of protection in everyday life. It should be noted that different cultures use evil eye symbols in different ways and their meaning may vary from one area to another.

How to choose the right size ring?

The ring should be tight, but still loose enough to be easily removed. We use a rounded inner diameter for rings. If you have a suitable ring, you can easily measure the inside diameter with a ruler. Remember, however, wide rings may require a size larger than thin rings. Rings that are curved on the inside often fit better than flat ones, so a smaller size may be sufficient.

Measuring the ring size from the finger

When measuring the diameter of your finger, it is a good idea to measure it to the width of the ring. You can use a string or a paper-cut gauge or order a free one from our online shop. ring gauge. Remember, however, that the ring must go over the joint. 

Preferably take the measurement a few times during the day. During the day and evening, fingers are often a little swollen, so we recommend that you always measure in the evening. Hands should be at normal temperature, especially avoid measuring cold fingers. Please note this especially in winter. In the morning, fingers are rested and usually at their thinnest.
