What is this symbol?
The Neapolitan horn is a traditional Italian amulet in the shape of a small, curved horn, often bright red, worn as a pendant or hung in homes, cars, or businesses.
It is considered a good luck charm and a symbol of protection against the evil eye (malocchio in Italian).
Legend and tradition.
In the past, the horn had to be offered with a drop of blood or a symbolic prick on the hand of the person receiving it.
This deeply ritualistic gesture symbolized the direct transmission of luck and protection from the giver to the receiver.
It also represented the breaking of the evil eye at the moment of the gift, as well as the binding of destiny between the two people—a true pact of benevolence and positive energy.
