Here is a lovely antique Cornicello charm pendant; otherwise known as the Italian Horn. They are traditionally worn to protect the wearer from the evil eye curse.

This piece has a lovely deep grey patina; and has certainly protected it's past wearers by the look of it. A weighty solid sterling casting with a unique handmade hammered bail. A great little layering piece that has a slightly tough vibe.

Amended by Winnow: Sterling chain with antique sterling beads was made for this pendant.

A slightly legible stamp reads ASC on top of the bail , C clasp closure.
