Trivia
- It is one of the four components of the Ankh Shield that can be obtained in Pre-Hardmode, the others being the Obsidian Skull, Cobalt Shield and Bezoar.
- A nazar is an eye-shaped charm commonly found in the Middle East meant to ward away a curse called the Evil Eye, sometimes given when a person expresses envy towards you which gives bad luck. The word "nazar" is derived from the Arabic "نظر", meaning "sight" or "seeing"; in this case it means "glare".
