Michael AramEvil Eye Box

The Evil Eye box is an object of protection and fascination. Typically, evil eye charms in a house are meant to keep jealousy and bad energy away while protecting all who come to or dwell in the home. Aram's box is a beautiful object on its own, but may also serve as a symbol or protection and safety. "I have always been intrigued by objects as symbols and the inherent power that is transmitted through them. As kids, we had turquoise charms pinned to our clothes to protect us, and there was always something comforting about having a symbol or protection in our home."
