The Origin of Piroska Gulachi Amulet


The Piroska Gulachi Amulet originated from a gypsy witch named Piroska Gulachi. She got this amulet from an unidentified creator who was only mentioned as a warlock. Her niece, Trisha, generously traded down this amulet to me.

The name "Piroska Gulachi Amulet" has been entiled after I received this amulet to honor the  earliest owner. In fact, Trisha got the information about this amulet from the private journal of her aunt, Piroska. There was nothing mentioned about the name of the amulet. It had been named as "Amulet of the Gods." My consideration of renaming it is because this unique amulet deserves a unique name. It holds a secretive mystery from its physical appearance. Surely it was made in a very special technique that is still a mystery for me. That is why I need to rename it with unique name that everyone should remember as it grows outstandingly famous.

Piroska Gulachi

Piroska Gulachi was born and raised in Hungary. She practiced her Psychic Gift and was guided by her Elders, who also skilled her in the craft of Spell Conjuring, Consecrating Treasures and Potions. She practiced Witchcraft before they invented the word Wiccan. She moved back to the states to spend time with Family. Upon moving here she formed a Coven, and was called upon as High Priestess. She prided herself with her vast knowledge of The Metaphysical, Paranormal, Reiki, Summoning Spirits and her Psychic Abilities. She traveled extensively since she was young and composed an eclectic collection of amazing artifacts from all over the world. This included haunted, enchanted dolls and statues, religious Artifacts, and Wiccan / Pagan Altar Tools. Her trips usually ended up at a town or location that was considered Haunted or where Paranormal Activity was reported. Gifted with her abilities, her trips would provide us with amazing stories & artifacts. She was an avid writer & documented all her trips & her treasures. She was dedicated and well versed in the Wicca Ways and spent her last years with her Coven Casting Spells.< pasted from ebay listing of Trisha's>





The Piroska Gulachi Amulet

The Piroska Gulachi Amulet serves as a protection tool in the invocation ritual. Invocation ritual is a way of calling spirits from the other world or dimension. The spirits are usually of the immortal ones (fairy, djinn, elementals, angels or demons). Calling these entities can be extremely dangerous if you don't have any protection. The protection can be a circle with holy names or seals, dagger, swords, staff, wands, sculptures, or an amulet. Mostly magician uses protection circle. This amulet enhances the protection so that the spirit will not do any harm to you. It was mentioned by Trisha in her listing that it can veil or hide the holder from the spirits. When we open the door of the other world, the spirits might be hardly returned to their origin. Thus, we need this protection to keep ourselves safe during this trouble. A skillful mage will clean the ritual site from any entities called from the other world.

The Piroska Gulachi Amulet was made in 1950's thus it has some patina on it. It is made of bronze. It has double sided pictures of men (I guess Europeans). They have big noses. Clearly, this amulet was not made by molding. Thus, there IS NO other amulets exactly like this. It cannot be reproduced. It seemed that the creator poured the liquid hot bronze to sculpt this amulet. If you pay careful attention, there are some tracks that look like finger/palm print on the amulet. How could they be at the hot liquid bronze? The very fine -allegedly- finger/palm print is doubtfully made by molding technique. This is what made it unique. The wizard sculptor must have paid very tremendous dedication towards his masterpiece.  Can you imagine how it was like when sculpting two sided item like this at  the high temperature of liquid bronze? It takes 950 degrees C (1750 F) to melt the bronze.
