Product Description:

This Hamsa is about 11x71/2 and made out of wood with added hooks for keys.

It is well made and is a lovely, meaningful item.

The Hamsa is believed to protect and shield against the evil eye and the envious eye of strangers.

The Chamsa as a home decor piece hung on a wall is a very common ornament in many Middle Eastern countries.

To a certain extent folklore and superstition are behind the Chamsa's popularity and for the most part it has nothing to do with the official Jewish religion.

The Hamsa is a symbol that has been around for thousands of years with its many names Hamsa, Hamsa Hand (Arabic), Chamsa, Hand of God,Hand of Fatima, Hand of Miriam, Hamesh Hand (Hebrew) to name just a few - the meaning is for the most part the same, the five digits of the human hand protecting the user.
