Hamsa Hand Necklace, Turquoise Handmade Protection Good Luck Jewelry
Item Description
The PROTECTION necklace sports an iconic hamsa hand pendant, a symbol revered for many millennia and still worn today. Symbolic jewelry that is said to ward off the evil eye and bring good luck, the small, handmade beauty features an artisan fine silver hamsa pendant, real Afghan turquoise gemstones and sterling silver. Artisan created from fine silver (more pure than sterling silver), the round pendant is centered with an upward facing open hand with an eye in the palm. The pendant was given a dark patina and then polished to bring out the details of the raised hamsa design. The back side has the maker's mark of the artist.
Perfectly highlighting the hamsa hand pendant are tiny turquoise saucer beads. Genuine turquoise from Afghanistan, the gemstones are mainly aqua in color, ranging from light to dark, but also with a few brownish beads here and there. The turquoise were hand cut so there is a bit of variation in the shape and size. A sterling silver lobster clasp and sterling silver extender chain finish the necklace. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the PROTECTION necklace was created for the woman who loves symbolic jewelry that is a one of a kind design and is on the small side.

When worn with the hand facing up, the hamsa hand is a universal symbol of protection and warding off evil, shielding against negative energies and promoting positivity. It has several other names including the hand of Fatima, the hand of Miriam, the hand of Mary and others. Turquoise is a stone of wholeness, promoting a sense of unity with all that surrounds us; it brings peace of mind, a soothing energy and healing of the spirit, melding the energies of the heavens with the consciousness of Mother Earth. Silver is a metal of love and healing; it is a mirror to the soul, helping us to see ourselves as others see us.
The PROTECTION artisan necklace was carefully designed and handmade in a dog friendly, smoke free studio. The necklace will come with two informational drop tags: one with the piece's name; the other lists the materials used in the necklace and the language of the stones and metals. It will be carefully packed in an organza jewelry bag, perfect for gift giving to a loved one . . . or to yourself!
