For wearing an old symbol of protection every day. A gold-tone Hamsa hand with an eye in the palm.
A hand held up against envy.
The Hamsa is an open hand worn across the Middle East and North Africa to turn away the evil eye; its name comes from the word for five. This one is gold-tone, outlined in small clear stones, with a round eye in the palm and open scrollwork below.
The story
Khamsa means five, echoing the fingers of the open hand. The hand-shaped amulet appears in Jewish and Islamic traditions, often with an eye in its palm, carrying a recorded history of protective symbolism across communities.
Wearing it your way
It comes on a gold-tone chain, ready to wear on its own or layered with a plain chain. It's a traditional gift for a new baby's mom, or for a friend heading into something new.
