Description
 
A traditional mati. Pink diamond pin with a silver cross and an oval diamond mati. (Silver cross style shown in sample photo is of the plain "silver cross".
 
Note: Martyika pins are shipped with pins attached. They arrive ready for use.
 
Please see additional photos for the other cross styles). The Mati - or eye - is given to babies, children and anyone you wish to protect. The Mati is a small pin or medallion of blue stone with a black eye in the center. The mati is worn to ward off the evil eye. The traditional name of the mati is matopiastra. The mati is a type of filakto (also spelled filacto). Filakto is a Greek word referring to something that keeps you safe by chasing away the evil - evil spirits, eyes, and thinking. The Mati - or Evil Eye is the most popular guardian. The eye absorbs the evil from someone thus protecting the baby from negativity.

diamon Pin in blue cross and Mati September 7, 2011
Reviewer: Polito goulionis from dyer, IN United States  
Pins were  pretty but a very big.  The mati and cross were perfect.  I found it difficult to pin on guest because pins were to big and could have damaged fine clothing.  Some of the pins decorative tops were put on the wrong side so I had to pin them on from left to right.
Pins did not lay flat once pinned on they slanted down and mati and cross slid to the bottom.  Even though I had some concerns the pins were pretty.

Nice product August 16, 2011
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Leicester, MA United States  
The pins are very nice.  I liked them very much as did my sister.  The only thing that I didn't realize when I purchased it was the actual size of the pin itself.  It was a little bigger than I had thought it was going to be & hoped that they were just a little smaller.  Nonetheless, I have them on my kids and my niece.
