"Amber Sparkle" is a one-of-a-kind handmade design that exudes charm and good luck. The horseshoe shape is adorned with beautiful multi-colored pearl and glass beads in shades of amber, green, pink, and orange, adding a touch of elegance. Each bead is carefully handpicked and arranged on the horseshoe using copper colored wire, giving it a unique and intricate look. Measuring approximately 4 1/2" x 5", this horseshoe makes for a perfect wall or door hanging for any space.
The history of lucky horseshoes dates back to ancient times and is deeply rooted in Irish folklore and traditions. It is believed that hanging a horseshoe above the door can ward off evil spirits and bring good luck into the home. The horseshoe is also associated with the lucky trade of blacksmithing and the magical properties of iron. In fact, you may notice that most horseshoes have seven nails, a number that is considered lucky.
The legend of the horseshoe has also been embellished over time, adding to its charm. In the middle ages, it was believed that witches were afraid of horses and their iron shoes, making them an effective way to keep bad luck at bay. Today, people all over the world still hang horseshoes above their doors for good luck.
When hanging the horseshoe, it is important to note that a "U" shape facing upwards is said to keep evil out and invite good luck in, while an upside-down horseshoe is believed to let luck escape. Whether you believe in the legend or not, the lucky horseshoe adds a touch of whimsy to any space and makes for interesting home decor.
