FOLKLORE
In the 17th century, if a horse was found drenched in sweat by morning, whispers of witchcraft filled the air. It was said the poor creature had been “hag-ridden”, stolen by a witch and ridden through the night.
Horses were vital to daily life and needed protection, so owners used horse brasses as lucky talismans to ward off evil. The shiny brass discs, often featuring symbolic designs, were believed to fend off evil spirits and bring good fortune.
Early designs carried specific meanings, blending protection and good fortune. For centuries, humans have relied on lucky charms, believing they bring luck and safety. Studies even suggest that believing in a talisman’s power can make you feel - and be - luckier.
