Hamsa is a talismanic symbol that people believed to protect them from harm against the evil forces.
The Hamsa Hand or Hand of Fatima is an ancient Middle Eastern talisman. In all cultures it is a protective symbol that people believed would keep them from harm against the evil eye and bring them universal abundance, fertility, luck and good health. Traditionally the spread fingers of the right palm facing upwards shields us from our inner thoughts of hatred, jealousy and insecurities as well as being for powerful protection.
Within the borders of this print are traditional tribal north african symbols, the 'eye' for protection against the evil eye and 'skeletons' used in traditional Berber magic.
