Gold Vermeil Filigree Artisan Crafted Hamsa Symbol Necklace, "Hamsa Symbol"
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.

"Beautiful filigree work"
Giuliana Valz-Gens command of the filigree techniques is exceptional. Her pieces are elegant and beautiful. Everyone who has received one of her pieces from me for a special occasion has liked their gift immensely. She is a great asset for Novica to have.

"pretty and well made necklace"
This necklace is pretty, well made, good quality, and light weight. The gold color is soft, lovely, and a little shiny, but not a lot of shiny. The Filigrees in the hearts are well crafted, and a little shiny and attractive under light, which is my favorite part on this delicate necklace and make it stunning.
