This stunning standing Hamsa is made out of metal and formed with a laser cut, then hand-painted in beautiful multicolored. The frame of the hamsa is in bright blue and the inside of the hand is filled with a sunny and colorful Jerusalem with its palm trees, walls, domes, and houses.

This wonderful piece of art will brighten your home and bring a little piece of Jerusalem close to you.

The Hamsa also referred to by the Jews as the hand of Miriam, sister of Moses and Aaron, is a traditional amulet in the Middle East and North Africa.
Literally meaning “five”, the Hamsa has the shape of an open hand (therefore, “five” fingers) and is believed to bring protection and defense against the evil eye.
A work of art by Yair Emanuel, this Hamsa is a perfect housewarming gift for a friend!
