The skull symbol held special meaning in religion, art and the world of decorative design throughout history, it is typical in different traditions, to repetitively observe the use and wearing of skulls. There are multiple meanings around the item, and today we will talk about some representations that involve this mythical image.
First, maybe you are asking, where does it come from? Well, it is common to see it featured into the myths of cultures from the Aztec or Mayan to the tribal grouping of North America. And it is also seeing in Indian, Buddhism, Celtic and other traditions that we will be explaining about in this article.

In most of the Eastern traditions, the symbol of the skull is connected not only to the representation of death, evil, fear and mortality, but also symbolize the complete opposite as, protection, power and gratitude toward life.
In Mexico, skulls are decorated in garish patterns and colors to celebrate the dead. The Day of the Dead, also known as annual “Día de Los Muertos” is the time for families to dress up, come together, celebrate and party for the lives of those they have lost. During this time skulls are decorated and placed around the gravestones of the deceased to make whimsical decorations that commemorate death instead of mourning lost friends and relatives.
Aside of its symbolism, the skull stands as a constant reminder that nobody can scape from death. For exchange, in Christian religion, there are some Rosaries that can include skulls, this represents the Latin expression “Memento Mori”, meaning “Remember that you shall die”; this kind of Rosaries, serve as a reminder to live life conscious of judgement after death.

In the Indian culture, the skulls play a vital role in religious illustrations, they are often ornamenting ancient god or goddess as their skull bracelets, pendants, necklaces, rings, weapons, etc., showing their ability to conquer death.

As the representation of skulls in Hinduism is straightforward but in Tibetan Buddhism and Buddhism it is little deeper with their unique perspectives. As similar to Hinduism, skulls are generally linked to representing ornaments around god and goddesses, which is commonly known as Munda malas.
In Buddhism, the skulls instead of meaning loss or death, it shows the vital Buddhist symbol of emptiness, that in this culture, emptiness is the quality of the universe.
There is an easy spotted difference in the Buddhist skull, they have four canine teeth depicted as the symbol of biting through of the four maras while the single skull represents different functions and forms in Tibetan iconography.

In the culture of Celtics, skulls are viewed as the seat of power and soul, some sources mention the skulls as the soul house.
According to the mythology of the Celtics, the number five (5), is considered to have magical properties. There are five openings in the human skull viz, a mouth, two nose cavities, and two eyes, thus special interest to Celtics. Practically, there are three main holes in the skull, a mouth and two eyes. So that the number three is considered to be a scared number in their mythology. And when these three holes are connected, they come up with a triangle that popularly represents a Celtic theme known as Trinity. Celts always believe that the three openings in the skull show creation, magic, and transformation that endlessly happen across life.
The circle nature form of the skull head and the eyes, are strongly related to the circle culture of Celtics; this shows life’s cyclical nature and also the feeling of togetherness in their communities.
In addition to these, the oracle shape of mouth and eyes of the skull viewed or represented as the gateways for receiving knowledge. The logic behind this belief is that everything that we see comes through our eyes and shows our strongest method of accepting knowledge and learning that we, the humans possess naturally.

It is said that silver is a mirror to the soul, because it helps to see ourself as the people usually do.
Silver is a very resistant mineral and can be found pure, but it’s also usually mixed with gold, antimony, arsenic and other metals in order to make it malleable.
Its optical reflective quality is the highest in comparison with any other metal, which makes it very useful for solar energy and also in making mirrors.
In addition to being receptive and a good conductor of heat and electricity, silver has a markedly pleasing resonance. This resonance is exemplified in the lives of those who expand parental love to embrace some larger section of the human race.
These beneficent individuals respond to and vibrate in unison with pulsations emanating from the spiritual plane.
Silver whose primary value is related to moral purity, unworthiness and holiness. These values have also contributed to the properties of silver to have extraordinary whiteness and the ability to prevent decomposition and decay processes. Probably because of this last trait, silver has always been attributed magical properties, and the power to deflect evil forces.
The first and basic value of silver is that we perceive it as a light, and we can call it the “absolute metaphor of light”. This symbolism is not related solely to Christianity, but it can also be found in ancient Greeks and Old Slavic cultures, for which “silver is a fire that shines in the night”.
Besides, the light in Christianity is the symbol of the divine: “… that God is light, and there is no darkness in him.” (I John 1:1). Accordingly, silver as an “absolute metaphor of light” represents the “absolute metaphor of God,” and it can be said that light is not the essence of God, but its energy.
Silver is known to carry the energies of the moon, especially during new moons and full moons. As Silver is reflective, the moon reflects light coming from the sun, and it does the same for whoever wears it.
Silver will reflect negativity away from you, which makes it a stone of magical protection and security.
Stingray Leather is a type of natural leather made from the skin of Stingray, and Stingrays are a group of sea rays, which are cartilaginous fish related to sharks. This is a very exotic and amazing material due to their characteristics such as durability, strength, waterproof resistance and also fire resistance.
This leather is commonly used in bags, shoes and bracelets as we mostly do. But remember that we also have accessories like keychains made of this material.
Every piece of material we use in Double Bone Bracelets, is specially handpicked from Thailand. That way we can guarantee that our materials are 100% genuine stingray leather.
It is important to mention that we are economically and ecologically responsible and we do not kill any stingray in order to get the leather from it.
In Thailand, part of the culinary culture includes Stingray dishes, stingrays are hunted for food and we make use of local consumers' waste to give extra use and life to this precious material.
Once we picked the perfect Stingray Leather, this is shipped directly to Italy, in here our craftsmen receive genuine stingray leather and begin to hand-made our signatures bracelets loved by everyone.
After the bracelet is finished, it's shipped again but this time to our headquarters, in here we make sure everything is perfect to finally deliver to you around the world.
]]>We will share with you our most important care tips to maintain the quality of the python leather and how you can do it by yourself.
Like any other type of leather, you shouldn’t unnecessarily expose your python leather bracelets in extreme situations or weather, because it will lose its natural color and shine.
Make sure to keep your bracelet safe by storing it in the pouch given at the time of purchase.
Grab a damp cotton cloth (not too wet!) And wipe it to remove dust or dirt.
You should do it in the direction of the scales. You can know the direction of the leather of your bracelet, by touching it gently through the leather and if it feels soft and smooth, that's the right direction, otherwise, it will feel rough and the scales will raise.
Now for the final step, we are going to moisturize our leather. But first, you have to take into consideration these 2 options:
You can moisturize your bracelet with a natural cream, this will keep up the natural shine of the leather.
Take a small amount of natural cream, and apply a thin layer over the bracelet, let it dry, and after that, wipe it with a dry cotton cloth to polish it.
For this type of leather, you shouldn’t apply any substance because it is the leather in its most natural state. It will be enough to clean it with a damp cotton cloth to remove dust or dirt and the natural color and shine won’t be affected.

The evil eye. Chances are you have seen this famous symbol many times. You’ve probably even worn one and you’ve definitely seen someone wearing an evil eye amulet. You may have witnessed a person give the “evil eye” look (and you may have even given it yourself). But do you know the deep and meaningful history of the evil eye symbol, and do you know how popular and prevalent the evil eye is throughout a plethora of different cultures? Below is the need-to-know information on the symbol that is so popular, it is currently one of the most trendy pieces of jewelry.
}
History and Meaning of the Evil Eye
The symbol and superstition of the evil eye is one of the strongest symbolic images in the world. Yet, despite the differences in the cultures which hold the evil eye myth, it retains largely the same meaning no matter where the story is told. The evil eye is thought of as a look given to inflict harm, suffering, or some form of bad luck on those that it is cast upon. It is a look which clearly states that one intends for something bad to happen to the object of one’s focus, either out of jealousy or pure malice. The superstition of the evil eye holds that the malicious look is powerful enough to bring about actual disaster for the unfortunate person that is the receiver of the glare.
The earliest known evidence for belief in the evil eye goes back to ancient Greece and Rome. It was believed that the evil eye was the largest threat to anyone who had been praised too much, or received admiration beyond what they truly deserved. The praised person would become so swollen with pride that he or she would bring about his or her own doom via the evil eye, which was believed to be able to cause physical and mental illness. In fact, any disease which did not have an immediate, obvious cause was thought to be caused by the evil eye. It was thought that the gods and goddesses were punishing those who had become too proud of their achievements, and destroyed them with the power of the evil eye to restore them to the level of mere mortals.
A belief in the evil eye is widespread on every continent. The Middle East, Asia, Europe, and Central America all fear the evil eye. In Shahih Muslim Book 26, the prophet Muhammad warns about the dangers of the evil eye and says that one must take a bath in order to counteract the effects of the evil eye’s power.
Much as in Classic Greece and Ancient Rome, Islamic culture holds that excessive praise will bring about the ill effects of the evil eye. Thus, instead of praising an adorable child, one is supposed to say that “God has willed” the child’s good lucks, or risk endangering the youth. Ashkenazi Jews also believe that excessive praise causes a vulnerability to the evil eye, and will repeat a Yiddish phrase, “Keyn aynhoreh!” meaning “no evil eye” in order to protect against it.
The evil eye is a powerful superstition in India. Hinduism preaches that the eye is the most powerful point at which the body can give off energy. Thus, a strong fear of an “evil” look from the eye makes sense; the evil eye holds enormous powers. The Hindus fear that even an “admirable” eye can bring about ill luck, resulting in the supply of milk from cows drying up (again, this idea dates back to the fear of undue praise, first warned against in Greece). In fact, the Hindus will offer the “admiring” glancer a bowl of milk to counteract the threat of the evil eye.
The Hindus believe that jealousy is at the root of the power of the evil eye, whether in the form of a malicious or admirable look. Interestingly, the Hindus teach that the times of change in life–as in during puberty, marriage, or childbirth–one is most vulnerable to the threat of the evil eye.
Hindus believe that even animals such as the snake are capable of giving one the evil eye. The Hindus believe that, even though men are capable of casting the evil eye, women are the most common sources of the glance. For this reason, in South India women will paint their eyelids black to protect themselves from the evil eye, and to prevent themselves from eyeing another with the look.
In South America, Brazil holds a superstition equivalent to the evil eye known as the “fat eye.” Compliments which are sincere are not feared to cause the evil eye to attack as in other countries, but insincere compliments are thought to put one at stake.
In Europe, the myth of the evil eye also originated with the idea that envious or malicious looks had the power to bring about bad luck. The largest source of the evil eye was believed to be witches. Yet those with eye colors which were rare were also seen as powerful possessors of the evil eye look. For instance, Germans feared those with red eyes. In Ireland, those with squinty eyes were feared to be evil eye sorcerers. In Italy, the unibrow was another sign that one would cast an evil eye.
The fear of the evil eye did not carry over to America, except in the form of a metaphor. While the superstition is not intense enough to take precaution, the evil eye is seen as impolite, and a warning that the source of the evil eye has bad intentions.
In different languages, the evil eye is known as:
In addition to the use of evil eye amulets, the Greeks would carry incense or the cross as protection against the evil eye. New mothers would keep objects as protection under their pillows or on their heads, and these included red, black, or white strings, a nail, gunpowder, bread, salt, garlic, a ring, indigo blue, or a pair of silver buckles. Each of these objects held a meaning which made it a good defense against the evil eye. For instance, gunpowder symbolized an ability to fight back against the evil eye. The nail symbolized strength. The indigo held its power in its blue coloring. Salt was a symbol of preservation and strength.
If these preventative steps failed, however, the Greeks had many more remedies against the evil eye. In some villages, the fur of a bear would be burned to cure the curse. In others, a gypsy would massage the forehead to get rid of the ill effects of the evil eye.
In many countries, including Greece, Armenia, and Assyria, it is thought that a pinch on the rear will remedy the curse of the evil eye. In Europe, some Christians have the tradition of creating the sign of the cross with their hands, while at the same time pointing the index and pinky finger toward the source of the evil eye. In Bangladesh, a black dot is drawn on the forehead of children to ward off the evil eye curse. Pretty young women have a secret dot drawn in kohl behind their ears to protect against the evil eye.
Phrases and rituals are not the only way to protect against the power of the evil eye. The most popular method of escaping the evil eye’s effects in many cultures is by the use of evil eye talismans, evil eye symbols, and evil eye jewelry. These are meant to “reflect” the power of the evil look. The evil eye amulet originated in Greece, where it was known as an “apotropaic” amulet, meaning that it reflected harm. The most basic design of the evil eye, prevalent in the Middle East, is a talisman designed with concentric blue and white circles made to symbolize the evil eye, known as the nazar. It is often used on houses, vehicles, or jewelry.
One of the most powerful examples of the evil eye amulet in the Middle East and Africa is the Hamsa, also known as the “Hand of Fatima.” The hamsa is a hand-shaped symbol with the evil eye on the palm. The hamsa can be used in wallpaper or jewelry to ward off the evil eye. The hamsa is also found in Jewish culture, where it is known as the “Hand of God” or the “Hand of Miriam.” The popularity of Kabbalah has revived the hamsa and influenced its presence in jewelry and design.
The evil eye still has powerful influence in modern life, pop culture, and even jewelry and design. Who is not familiar with the phrase “the evil eye,” or thought to have caught someone casting it their way at least once or twice before? In Turkey, the Evil Eye is ingrained in every day life and has deep symbolism throughout the culture. The Evil Eye pendant is affixed to anything that is perceived to attract greed, envy, or ill-will. In Turkey, you will find the Evil Eye symbol on currency, in homes and offices, hanging from the necks of newborn children and farm animals, and in the foundations of buildings.
The evil eye is an extremely popular piece in jewelry design at the moment. In recent years many celebrities, ranging from Madonna, Britney Spears, The Olsen Twins, Mick Jagger, and Nicole Richie (just to name a few) have been photographed wearing red Kabbalah bracelets, which are thought to be another method of protection against the evil eye. The evil eye amulet has been worn in public by celebrities such as as Cameron Diaz, Kelly Ripa, Brad Pitt, Kim Kardashian, Lindsay Lohan, Lauren Conrad, and Rhianna. Clearly, this iconic and stylish image has only increased in popularity.
Interestingly, the myth of the evil eye seems to make a lot of sense in our current world. The idea that too much fame, fortune, success, or praise can bring about one’s downfall makes, especially in celebrity culture, might reinforce the notion of the evil eye. The above mentioned Ms. Lohan, and more recently Charlie Sheen, are both examples of how the power of success can turn into disaster. Could it be that if Lindsay had been wearing the evil eye sooner, she’d be in better shape? Millions of believers would probably tell you just that. Whatever the case, those most often in the spotlight, such as celebrities, or those with success or reasons to be proud, should probably carry with them the protection of an evil eye amulet or evil eye talisman — just to be safe!

Yes, maybe you were expecting to receive something smaller in one of your fingers... but this time, we want to share with you what does it mean if your boyfriend gives you a bracelet.
When your guy gives you cute jewelry as a bracelet, could mean a lot of things; maybe it’s because he wanted to have a special present for his girl; or its represent the bond between the two of you and it’s proof of what he feels about you; another reason could be that he gave it to you as a remembrance of him so that even if he is not around, you will have something to remind you of his feelings for you.
But as we did in our previous post, what does it mean if your girl gives you a bracelet, we dived-in into the internet looking for the reasons people says about a boyfriend giving a bracelet, so, let’s begin:
When a guy buys a woman jewelry, and in it for the long haul
From a simple friendship gesture to a stylish diamond-encrusted bracelet could be a sign of being someone special to him.
I mean, guys don’t give bracelets to every girl, so it’s probably means something.
For him, it might be like saying you’re his girl and nobody else can have you. He is showing everybody else and you, that you are his girlfriend and he likes you.
It’s nothing too formal as a ring, but it special enough to give it to his loved one.
]]>
But, let’s not stop there, today we want to tell you a little bit more about the moments it’s recommended to use your accessories in a specific arm.
If the desired look you want to achieve is to style up your wrist watch, then ideally you have to wear your bracelet(s) in the same arm. If you wear your watch every day, you must have a clear idea where to use your wrist accessories.
If you are already using a watch, and you want to add it as many bracelets as you have but still don’t want your wrists to look heavily busy, you can split your accessories in both arms and balance them. So, if you are using your wristwatch on the left, wearing the bracelets on the right will be the best option to balance it.
Wearing your bracelets in the opposite dominant hand is important. If your dominant hand is your right hand, then you will have to wear your bracelets on the left. Why? Because depending on the material of your bracelets, there can be some textures that at the moment of doing your regular activities with your dominant hand, it will maybe feel uncomfortable.
Which hand do you wear your bracelets on?
Tell us down there in the comment box below! ⬇
Maybe you think that now, you’re completely hers, but nothing is farther from the truth. Sometimes if a girl gives you a bracelet, only means that you are special to her. Most of the time, girls give it as a cute present to remind you every time you wear it that you have someone thinking about you too.
But so that we are not the only ones to say so... we reviewed what people say on the internet about this type of gift, and some of those made our day 😄
Here are some statements we want to share with you:
So that other women see it and realize he already has someone special in his life.
Be careful, you never know when this statement can be true!
The theory says that if you wear it without a problem, maybe you don’t have a girl, buuut if you keep it lowkey it's maybe because you will have problems with your girl because you are carrying that little souvenir and you definitely would tell the owner…pretty smart, right? 🧐
If it’s her own bracelet, maybe from decades ago, you must be someone really special to her and she wanted you to know it.
Don't get bogged down with it, maybe you are overthinking and she just wanted you to have a cute bracelet. In any case, you should ask her what exactly she meant by it 😉
Many people don’t know what is exactly the evil eye, but the truth is that all of us are vulnerable to its misfortune.
The evil eye is a superstitious legend curse believed to be cast by a malevolent glare, usually given to a person when one is unaware.
A lot of cultures believe that getting the evil eye will cause misfortune or injury, while others believe it to be a kind of supernatural force that attract malevolent vibes on those who wish harm upon others (especially innocents).
It is a look that clearly states that one intends for something bad to happen to the object of one’s focus, either out of jealousy or pure malice. The superstition of the evil eye holds that the malicious look is powerful enough to bring about actual disaster for the unfortunate person that is the receiver of the glare.
You must be protected, there is nothing like being safe and getting away all the bad vibes that must be attracted to you!
Using a talisman or amulet prevents us from having undesired experiences and improves our capability to escape from the “evil eye” effect.
It is said that even diseases are prevented just by using the evil eye. This is the belief that when something comes inside our bodies through bad thoughts, envy, or just a weird vibe, it develops into different ailments inside us making us feel tired, without energies, mood changing and pain all around our body.
