In Corsica, popular tradition gives it the power to resist the malevolent influence of the 'Evil Eye', casted by an envious person. This curse would mostly aim at people that are congratulated. Babies being the most vulnerable, custom is to protect them with a red coral hand.

The coral hand is usually given at birth, to hang in the crib. It is a custom proper to Southern Corsica and some coastal cities.
