Very beautiful 925 silver ring composed of 4 small round opercula of Saint Lucia's eye of 4mm.
This is the operculum of a shell that can be collected on certain beaches after a big storm.
The size of the opercula can vary from 2 mm to 3 cm.
It was in the 4th century that the legend of St. Lucy was born: a young girl from the Syracuse nobility who obtained the miraculous healing of her mother who was suffering from an incurable disease through repeated prayers to the Virgin Mary.
Devoting boundless worship and devotion to the latter, she tore out her eyes and threw them into the sea so as not to be diverted from her faith and to keep her suitors away.
Entirely devoted to prayer, she performed many miracles.
In response to this devotion, the Holy Virgin restored his sight and gave him more beautiful and brighter eyes ("Occhji belli e lucentti").
The operculum of the shell called the "Turbo Rugueux" that is found on the Mediterranean shores symbolizes the eyes of St. Lucia. Wearing one is said to ward off the evil eye and promote good luck.
It should be noted that variations of this symbolism are found throughout the Mediterranean basin and beyond (notably in Indonesia).
In Corsica, the "eye of Saint Lucia" is considered a lucky charm.
