A gorgeously designed 14k gold hamsa pendant with turquoise stone. As all our merchandise, this great pendant is handmade by experienced Israeli jewelers. The hamsa, otherwise known as the hand of Miriam, is a protective amulet against the evil eye and other harmful things. It is a common custom to wear them as Jewish pendants or hang a decorative hamsa plaque in the house, to protect the household and the wearer from all harm. This marvelous pendant has a beautiful decoration of a cutout flower at the center of the palm of the Hamsa, with an opaque turquoise stone set at the heart of the flower. This hamsa is definitely a one of a kind piece of jewelry.
