A selection of amulets found around London from the 1880s to the 1920s, by folklorist Edward Lovett. From the Telegraph: “Lovett spent many hours exploring the markets, herbalists and costermongers of working-class London. His travels enabled him to collect objects deemed by their owners to bring luck and good fortune; some trinkets were even thought to have the power to ward off or even cure illness.” -- source link
