Italy Part 8: Lovely Triangle from Venice

Those who have watched Hong Kong series "Triumpth In the Sky" (衝上雲宵) years ago surely come across with this Triangel doll. In the movie, both the heroins were so crazy about these small little dolls namely Triangel that they believe to bring them lucks and fate. When I was in Venice during winter, I bought a few for myself and my sister.

It is believed to be a guardian angel which will bring you luck and protect you from the evil

Triangel symbolizes as the Guardian Angel of Love. Story of these dolls....

The Triangel originated from a famous Italian allusion. In the times of ancient Rome, there was a kindhearted lady falling in love with a young man who was witched to be indifferent to the lady. The lady was so depressed and sit in front of the window crying day and night. Finally, her love had touched the Gods. They sent the Triangel to the lady which could make the witch appear in front of the young man. The young man realized that his true love was the lady and they had fallen in love again!

Now, in Italy, girls like to place their Triangels in their rooms and let the Triangels bless them.
