Cat's Eye shells -- each one the operculum or foot-closure of a sea-snail called a Turban Shell or Turbo -- are widely used in Europe and the Middle East for protection against the evil eye, no doubt because they themselves resemble eyes. Two species are shown here, a dull reddish-brown one at upper left and a shiny greenish one at lower right.
