Meaning & Intention
The Evil Eye, or Nazar, is one of the oldest protective symbols still in daily use, tracing back thousands of years across the Mediterranean and Near East. Painted onto the inside of each bowl, the eye watches outward, believed to absorb and turn back envious or ill-wishing energy before it reaches the one who keeps it near.
Rendered here in deep blue, white, and indigo, the palette itself carries meaning: blue has long been associated with truth, protection, and the sky's watchfulness, while the concentric rings of each eye echo ripples of awareness radiating outward. Turkish artisans have kept this visual language alive for generations, adapting it to new forms while preserving its essential intent.
As a set of three, these bowls also speak to completeness and repetition in protective practice — placing them throughout a home multiplies the sense of being watched over, rather than relying on a single guardian in a single room.
Small enough to tuck into any corner of daily life, these bowls turn an ordinary act — dropping in keys, rings, loose change, or a pinch of salt — into a small daily gesture of mindfulness, a reminder to pause and notice what you're carrying with you as you come and go.
