Questions
Which wrist do you wear a red string on?
Traditionally the left wrist.
What does it mean to wear an evil eye?
It is worn to turn away envy and bad luck, and as a reminder to protect your good things.
Can anyone wear an evil eye?
Yes. The evil eye is shared by many cultures and worn by people of every background.
Is it real sterling silver?
The charm and clasp are 925 sterling silver; the bracelet itself is red cord.
How do I keep it shiny?
Store it dry, take it off before swimming or the gym, and wipe it with a soft cloth. Sterling can darken over time; a silver cloth brings it back.
How long does shipping take?
Most orders arrive in 6-14 business days.

Care
