The hamsa, a palm shaped amulet found across North Africa and the Middle East, is carved here from green and white quartz and polished smooth.
It is a slice, so the outline of the hand and the natural green and white pattern in the stone are the stars, and the high polish gives it a smooth feel in the hand. Lay it flat on a table or desk, prop it on a small stand on a shelf, or place it in a meditation corner or near a doorway, a traditional spot for a hamsa. At about 5.6 inches tall, it is large enough to read clearly from across a room without crowding a surface. It makes a thoughtful gift for a housewarming, a new office or anyone who keeps a hamsa at home. Quartz is hard and durable, so it suits everyday display. This is the exact hamsa shown.
The hamsa is about 5.625 inches long by 3.75 inches wide. The angled photos show its thickness.
About the Hamsa and Green Quartz
The hamsa is a palm shaped amulet traditionally used against the evil eye, found in Jewish, Christian and Muslim communities and also called the Hand of Fatima or Hand of Miriam. Quartz is hard, 7 on the Mohs scale, and takes a high polish with a glassy luster.
Stone Meaning: Green quartz is traditionally associated with renewal and growth.
