The winged phallus has an ancient tradition that dates back to Roman times, when it was considered a symbol of fertility, power and prosperity. This amulet was used to protect its wearer from the evil eye and evil forces.

In Pompeii, numerous examples of winged phalluses have been found, carved on buildings and depicted in frescoes, demonstrating how popular and widespread this symbol was among the ancient Romans.

The phallus, always associated with virility and life, takes on further power with the addition of wings, symbolizing the speed with which protection and luck could reach its wearer. This symbol was worn as a personal amulet or used as a decorative element in homes to ensure continuous protection.
