Corno napoletano, Italy

Il corno napoletano, which is also called "o 'o curniciello", is a traditional Neapolitan amulet and talisman used to ward off the evil eye and bring good fortune to the people who have one as an accessory (necklace, bracelet) or simply have one as a decoration in your house. My family, and Neapolitans in general, are quite superstitious. It's not uncommon to find a curniciello in households.
