Our Elena earrings are made of gold-plated brass, freshwater pearls and one-of-a-kind evil eye glass pearls. The evil eye beads are used to protect against the curse, which is based on the believe that a jealous look or glare given by envious people manifests into a curse bringing misfortune to the receiver, who is usually unaware of the malicious gaze upon them. Every piece is unique . They are made by hand in Germany . They come in a beautiful Smilla Brav jewellery pouch. Due to the unique nature of the stones, every piece is different and the sizes may vary.
