Amulets and Talisman

Ever crossed your fingers? Or use phrases like "touch wood" and "God willing", or don't walk under ladders?

Throughout time, symbols, amulets and talisman have been worn to reflect our beliefs or to give power or protection, whether it is to bring good luck or deflect evil.  Some of these symbols like the the evil eye, can be traced back over 5,000 years.

There are so many symbols which represent our beliefs - whether it takes the form of crosses, a St Christopher, peace signs, evil eyes, eternity, infinity, runes, triple moons, Hamsa hands, or a fertility symbol like the Italian Cornicello.
