Hintli nazar boncuğu


The Indian way of warding off nazar or the evil eye...
I love this picture. This was right outside a very swanky Swarovski showroom in Delhi. I love the colours (çok kırmızı!), the contrasts, the shadows and the texture of the dried up green chillies.

  5. also, this makes me happy. and hungry. the problem with hintli anti-nazar devices is that i want to eat them; whereas blue glass i am more likely to leave alone.
