Folklore & Tradition:
For centuries, the horseshoe has been regarded as one of the Western world's most recognizable symbols of good fortune. Iron itself has long been believed to offer protective qualities, while the horseshoe became associated with safeguarding homes and inviting blessings.
A popular legend tells of St. Dunstan, a 10th-century Archbishop of Canterbury, who is said to have trapped the devil by nailing a horseshoe to his hoof. He released him only after securing a promise that the devil would never enter a home displaying a horseshoe above its doorway. Whether viewed as folklore or tradition, this story helped establish the horseshoe as a lasting symbol of protection.
According to traditional custom, hanging the horseshoe with the open ends facing upward allows luck to collect like a cup, while some believe turning it downward lets good fortune pour out. Another popular tradition suggests mounting it with seven nails through its holes, as seven has long been considered a lucky number.
