The nazar is a protective charm; hang this bell in your yard and let its hand-crafted nazar protect your home and garden from the evil eye.
Available July, 2010
The nazar is a common protective talisman in the Middle East. Folklore says these "staring eye charms" are supposed to send the evil eye back to the originator. The traditional design is a disk or ball with concentric blue and white circles (usually from the inside out the colors are: navy/black, light blue, white, dark blue). In Turkey you can find this popular symbol on almost anything - it's commonly found in or on houses and vehicles, and it's often used as beads in jewelry.
Maintenance: Every part of a Woodstock Chime is weather protected. Over time, however, those layers of protection can begin to wear. To enjoy your Woodstock Chimes for years to come, we suggest the following simple maintenance tips --
Periodically, apply a thin layer of Danish or lemon oil with a clean cloth to the hardwood parts. Regular oiling will help protect the wood and retard the natural aging process.
Use a damp cloth to clean the glass parts. If necessary, mild soap and water (or glass cleaner) can be used.
Plated steel elements should be wiped clean with a duster or damp cloth. Polishes should not be used on these, as it may remove the protective varnish coating.
