Saint Lucia Eye Pendant in 925 Sterling Silver - 10 mm

Jewelry with the Saint Lucy's eye and legend.

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

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

The powers of Lucy are invoked to cure eye diseases.

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