Details

From Peru's Giuliana Valz-Gen, this beautiful pendant takes the form of an amulet known as the hamsa, which means "five" in Arabic. It is considered a defense against the evil eye. Popular in Jewish culture, its five fingers can represent the five books of the Torah and the fifth letter of the Hebrew alphabet, which represents one of the holy names of God. It is also a reminder to praise God with all five senses. Handcrafted of sterling silver bathed in 21k gold, the necklace showcases Andean filigree art.

These earrings were a big hit”

These earrings were even more beautiful than I had expected. The delicacy of the filigree work and the beauty of the gold plating were amazing in these delicate pieces.
