History:
BLUE EYES are one of the oldest traditions on earth, which started when, Turks moved from middle Asia, thousands of years ago. Besides Turks, so many nations around Turkey, under the cultural influence of the Ottoman Empire, started to carry one since they were born till they die.
The BLUE EYE is the “Guardian Angel" that watches over you. It is like a mirror that draws positive energy and reflects the bad intentions back. If, something bad is too strong for the BLUE EYE to push away, it breaks and sacrifices itself to protect you. All the positive energy gathered inside rushes out and sweeps away that bad thing.
It is believed that; “If you carry a BLUE EYE with you, it adds positive meanings to your life.”

Technique:

Even though, there are so many variations of BLUE EYES, the one who makes it, how he makes it is the most important part of it. Our BLUE EYES are made by a very old artist, known as the “legendary blue eye artist of all times”.

BLUE EYES mostly come in cobalt blown glass (Every color has different meanings). They are definitely hand made, some molded in sterling silver. Beads are either hand painted or the layers of glass are fused in cobalt glass.
BLUE EYES have rich cultural and historical story behind them. They are high in quality, unique, easy to demonstrate, reasonably priced and every body of all ages just loves them.
BLUE EYE jewelry makes a great gift and it is a conversation piece, which you will receive a lot of compliments.
