The History and Significance of the Italian Horn
The Italian horn, or Cornicello, has been a cherished symbol in Italian culture for centuries. Traditionally, it is believed to ward off the "malocchio," or evil eye, and bring good fortune to its wearer. This amulet, shaped like a twisted horn or chili pepper, is often crafted from precious materials like gold or silver, adding to its allure and meaning.
At Bella Cosa Jewelers, we honor the deep cultural significance of the Italian horn by curating necklaces that respect its roots while catering to contemporary tastes. Whether you are Italian by heritage or simply drawn to the mystique of this iconic symbol, our collection offers something for everyone.
