Fairy Ornaments

Vira
Fairies are spirits or supernatural creatures that are believed to be present in the world. They are human in appearance but have supernatural powers. They are even known to have powers to cast spell and influence or foresee future. They are sometimes alluring, at times seductive and even frightening. Some fairies have wings while others do not.

Origin of Fairies

Fairies are known in the folklore. They were known to be diminutive people who lived in Celtic nations and British Isles and due to human invasion they seemed to have gone into hiding, possibly underground or in the hills. Some even say that fairies are supernatural beings who lived in the otherworld. The fear of fairies to iron was due to human invasion with weapons like swords.

Another theory about fairies is that they are gods and have control over the all the natural events in the world. The third theory is that the fairies belong to the world of the dead. Hence they live in the underground or the underworld along with the dead.
