Talismans and Amulets in Jewelry
Since ancient times, people have believed that jewelry can serve not only as decoration but also as protection. Amulets and talismans were worn to attract luck, health, and love, as well as to guard against misfortune.
Protective Stones
Each mineral carries its own symbolism. For example, turquoise was thought to ward off the evil eye, garnet symbolized energy and passion, and amethyst was seen as a stone of wisdom and calm.
Metals
Gold is traditionally associated with life force and prosperity, while silver is linked to purity and protection. Many still wear silver chains or rings “for good luck.”
Personal Symbols
People often choose pendants or bracelets with special meanings—crosses, stars, hearts, keys. Such symbols become personal amulets that reflect inner values.
Practical Tip
When choosing a jewelry talisman, consider not only trends but also your own feelings. If a stone or symbol evokes pleasant emotions and seems to “resonate,” it’s likely your amulet.
Interesting Fact
Archaeologists find protective jewelry in nearly all ancient cultures—from Egyptian scarabs to Slavic symbols. This tradition is alive today.
