Thank you Brian for that site, I have been through it (took ages) and have identified many of my beads that I previously did not know the origin of the style.
I have many of the Turkish eye beads that I collected while on holiday but do not know if they are supposed to protect you against the evil eye or whether they are supposed to be just lucky, have heard different descriptions of what they are meant to do from the Turks that sold them . The only problem with them is that many of them are not the right shape to use on bobbins, but I love them anyway.
