Description
Brava Bella!
4 Italian charms: a heart county flag, a horn (cornicello) , a hand (corna), a soccer ball and two different heart charms plus a silver plated, heavy weight heart charm to keep the bracelet balanced properly.
The CORINCELLO (horn) is symbolic of animal horns said to belong to the sacred Moon Goddess of Europe. The symbol bears protection for the wearer from the dreaded Evil Eye.
In Italy and other parts of the Mediterranean region, the CORNA (hand) gesture must usually be performed with the fingers tilting downward to signify the warding off of bad luck.
The heart charm, besides being adorable, has an actual purpose and that is to weigh the bracelet down on the side with the clasp, so the visual part of the bracelet on top.
Pony beads in red, green and white with stainless steel spacer beads, all Strung on Red suede leather lace.
