Originating in Catholic societies, Carnival has grown into a global phenomenon that transcends religious boundaries.

An interesting and unique aspect of Carnival in various regions is the tradition of exchanging necklaces, often intricately designed with colorful beads. One notable example is the Carnival horse necklace, which features charms and ornaments shaped like horses. These necklaces are reminiscent of historical equestrian parades and serve as symbolic tokens of good fortune and prosperity. They add a special element to the celebrations, as people wear and trade them, creating a sense of camaraderie and mutual appreciation. The Carnival horse necklace thus embodies both the rich cultural history and the festive spirit of the occasion.

This handcrafted necklace is a unique jewelry, inspired by Turkish or Ottoman styles, that complements any outfit.
