Hand of the Pinch Necklace

Figa Hand of the Pinch Necklace in sterling silver is a fun take on the figa, hand of strength and hand of peace necklace. A soft light hearted pinch of affection with a laugh to make sure your awake. 

The hand of the pinch  is capped with an organic textured sterling silver handmade fitting . Carved in beefalo bone ( looks like ivory as beefalo is finer and smoother than beef bone)   - naturally and ethically sourced . beef bone. Looks and feels like ivory. The very fine hand has been hand carved by JJ my wonderful friend that discovered bone carving as a therapeutic tool when in rehab many years ago. 

Inspired by the figa hand charms which the gesture uses a thumb wedged in between two fingers. This gesture is most commonly used to ward off the evil eye, insult someone, or deny a request. Because of its origins in Southern Europe or Latin Europe, the gesture was imported to Latin America.
