The EYE OF SAINT LUCIA is the operculum of a shellfish known as the Mediterranean rough turbo. This shellfish is mainly found on the Mediterranean coast.
It is considered to be a lucky shell. Slipped into a pocket as a rough stone, or worn as jewellery, it is supposed to protect its owner. A lucky shell, it is said that when the EYE OF SAINT LUCIA stored with money, it brings wealth.
The EYE OF SAINT LUCIA refers to Lucia of Syracuse, martyr and patron saint of several villages in Corsica. Lucia's devotion to God was a source of admiration for many believers who heard of her story, particularly around the Mediterranean. It also has a strong significance in the Christian religion. The lucky shell is considered to be a real guardian angel.
