This unique Kabyle/Berber hand of fatima Brooch is purely handmade by an Algerian artisan using pure silver 950, mediterranean red coral and colourful enamel. You sometimes get imperfections in their jewellery; that is because they are done separately by hand; which gives it the real sense of the Handmade. It could take them hours to make one single piece of art such as this one. It is made with passion and love to the culture. The artisans are only using pure products.
Meaning of Hand of Fatima:
The Khamsa or Hamsa, (in Hebrew: “Khamsa” in Arabic: Hamsa means “five”) is an icon in amulets, charms, and Jewellery, to protect against evil eyes.
An Islamic alternative name for this charm : “Eye of Fatima or the hand of Fatima” , regarding to Fatima Zahra, Prophet Muhammad’s daughter. The other meaning in Jewish is Miriam’s hand , as regards Miriam, the sister of Aaron and Moses. It is a sort of “protection of the hand” or “The hand of God“.
It symbolizes also the five books of the Torah to Jews and the Five Pillars of Islam for Sunni Muslims.

I am so pleased to send this email. The Nativity arrived today in perfect condition. It is beautiful. Thank you for helping me receive this Set. Please pass along my thanks to the artist. Does she make other figures? I would like to add some more 'village people' to the Set. This could be women and men bringing gifts to the woman and boy. Maybe typical foods or fruits, etc. I realize this is an unusal request, but maybe just give it some thought. Once again, thank you for everything. Joe

La robe que j'ai commandé était très satisfaisante, elle est arrivé largement dans les temps, et les changements que j'avais demandé ont été pris en compte et les mesures ont été bien appliquées et la robe m'allait très bien. En gros pas de points négatifs hors mis une toute petite tache de feutre qu'on a essayer d'enlever ce qui a un peu altéré le tissus sur le devant, mais je pense que ça arrive rarement. Je recommande donc ce site à tous le monde, la qualité est irréprochable. Je referai commande sans hésitation. Et surtout assistance et service après vente plus que satisfaisant, merci pour cela.
