Its Christmas season we are almost there and now is the perfect time to find that special gift. This pendant is hand carved and made of pure 999 sterling silver with 14kt yellow gold. Available in 44mm, 22mm, white silver and rose gold as well.
The Hamsa tradition is related to warding off the evil eye, as exemplified in the saying “khamsa fi ainek”five fingers in your eye. The Hand (Khamsa) has long represented blessings, power and strength and is thus seen as potent in deflecting the evil eye. The five fingers of the khamsa symbolize the five fundamental virtues in Islam. With the charity of Fatima, it also represents faith, prayer, pilgrimage and fasting.
