This Hand pendant features a beautiful bone hamsa hand carved in organic bone. I then glued on black leather, hand sewed various glass beads and used ultra fine glass glitter, and micro glass beads to surround the hand. Arab cultures often refer to it as the Hand of Fatima, which represents the Hand of God. The hamsa hand (Arabic) or hamesh hand (Hebrew) is an old and still popular apotropaic amulet for magical protection from the envious or evil eye. The words hamsa and hamesh mean "five" and refer to the digits on the hand. The necklace is 15 ½ inches long with a gold barrel clasp and is made of semi precious stones and glass leaves on wire.IN A world that seems more uncertain then ever, the Hamsa hand provides a link with a mystical time, when life was simpler. Regardless of belief the Hamsa Hand artwork has been bringing people peace, tranquility and beauty. Wear it around your neck for protection.
