Jewelry with the Saint Lucy's Eye and legend.

This is the operculum of a shell called Turbo or "Biou," found in the Mediterranean basin and particularly on Corsican beaches.

The operculum features one side with a spiral design and an orangey or greenish pearly side, depending on the specimen.This operculum is known as the Saint Lucy's Eye.

Saint Lucy's powers are invoked to cure eye diseases.

By analogy, the Saint Lucy's Eye wards off the evil eye, brings luck and happiness, and even promotes prosperity when kept with money.
