to stone by the God Dionysus and is characterized by vivid colors and large clean crystals that make beautiful gems.

 

Amber Stone: The Greeks called amber electron, or sun-made, perhaps because of this story, or perhaps because it becomes electrically charged when rubbed with a cloth and can attract small particles. Amber can be used to carve beads, charms and

religious objects as it is believed to hold special symbolic powers.

ailment known.

 

Onyx Stone: Onyx is a chalcedony that occurs in bands of different colors. It is composed of relatively straight, parallel

layers of different colors. When the dark layers are brown or brownish red, it is often called Sardonyx. Onyx is a form of agate

helpful to the liver and kidneys and aids digestion.

waters, and it occurs chiefly as an opaque, granular vein running through a host rock. Ancient manuscripts from Persia, India, Afghanistan, and Arabia report that the health of a person wearing turquoise can be assessed by variations in the color of the

stone and was also thought to promote prosperity.

 

Xilion Stone: The New Generation of Brilliance" It is the brightest and latest innovation in the galaxy of Swarovski crystals.

The secret that makes Xilion stand out from other Swarovski crystals is its new and unique cut. To give the best possible

sparkle, it has been glued with newly developed Hot fix glue.

 

Eye Collection

The charms are believed to reflect evil and protect the wearer from physical harm that can befall the object of "negative thinking".

This ancient belief in Evil Eye Protection stretches back before recorded history. It is mentioned in the Old Testament of the

Bible (Proverbs 28:22: "A man with an evil eye hastens after wealth And does not know that want will come upon him.") and

may be descended from beliefs of the ancient Egyptians and Sumerians. Belief in the evil eye is also well-known in many

countries in the Mediterranean area and in the Indian Sub-continent.

 

Have you just had a new child? Bought a new car? Built a new office building? Worried that your "friends" and others are filled

with envy about your good fortune? The protection of the Nazar (Bad Glance) is used for anything new or likely to attract praise.

The belief is that even well-intentioned compliments include a conscious or unconscious dose of envy and resentment. The

bead reflects the evil intent back to the onlooker. It somewhat resembles an eye and it is said the typical blue color is a factor

in protecting the user.
