Description: A magnificent antique brass Hamsa Amulet from Morocco c. 1930s. Beautifully decorated with impressive hand-engraved ornaments, centered by a Star of David (Magen David) and inscribed in Hebrew "Shadai" - one of God's names. Four distictly handmade glass beads add depth and character to the Hamsa. It is designated for hanging on the wall. An attractive piece that is an absolute must for any serious collector. A superb Jewish, Judaica, Hebrew, and North African item. Highly sought after by collectors, this Hamsa is a record of the rich Jewish life in Morocco that lasted almost 2000 years. While the Hamsa hand symbol is known for its protective powers in Berber and Arabian communities in North Africa as well, it speculated Jews were among the first to use the symbol, and the Hebrew inscription in this gorgeous antique characterizes it as distinctly Jewish. However, it is a shared belief among all the North African groups that the one who wears it or hangs it in his house will be protected from the Evil Eye and other negative influences.
