Jewish folk tradition has it that jealousy and maliciousness from others – known as the Evil Eye - can create ill fortune. Many beliefs have grown up to counter this – like wearing the red strings (red is a color associated with strength and power) associated with Kabbalah practice or jewelry designed around an eye.
This unusual geometric pendant necklace in sterling silver offers the wearer protection from the Evil Eye and cutting-edge style.
The silver eye pendant is created from three sections of sterling silver linked together to form a square. The largest section is an L shape with a thick base and comprises the square pendant's left side and bottom edge. The L is engraved with one long straight groove on the upper part and an inverted right angle on the bottom right, as well as two Kabbalistic symbols.
Another L, set on its side, completes the top edge and right side of the pendant. This smaller section is carved with a straight groove and two Kabbalah symbols, different from the ones that appear on the larger L.
Both angled parts of the necklace are linked at two points to a central oxidized silver square tile set with a single round, polished stone – an abstraction of the eye motif believed to keep evil thoughts and intentions at bay.
The design of this silver necklace will appeal not only to followers of Kabbalah, but also anyone who appreciates funky, modern jewelry in eye-catching design.

The literal translation of the term Kabbalah is 'receiving.' This refers to receiving the hidden mystical truths behind Jewish thinking and Jewish traditions.According to Kabbalistic tradition, knowledge of Kabbalah was transmitted orally by the Patriarchs and sages. Initially Kabbalah was widely studied by pious Jews who wished to understand the mystical aspects of the connection between man and God. Eventually the sages feared that the secrets of Jewish mysticism may fall into the wrong hands during foreign conquests or may be misinterpreted by unknowledgeable students. It was therefore decided to reserve the study of Kabbalah to pious and knowledgeable students over the age of 40.
This has been the case for over 2000 years until recently when a renewed interest suddenly appeared. Now Kabbalah is being studied by many people all over the world including famous celebrities. Jewish mysticism has begun to attract the attention of the masses as they search for hidden wisdom and meaning in turbulent times. With these unique jewelry designs, we provide the opportunity to connect with the ancient powers of Jewish mysticism.
