Vintage Mano Figa Charm

An iconic talisman that's been used in jewelry for centuries - the Mano Figa, or the female inspired gestured hand. It represents many things including good luck, femininity, and protection against evil. This pretty little Mano has a sterling silver bail and bracelet around the wrist of the hand (I just love when vintage jewelry is wearing jewelry!) In the picture we have the charm on a new sterling silver chain, available for an additional cost (see listing).

HISTORY: There are no markings on this piece but we estimate it to the 1940's.

MATERIALS: Agate stone and sterling silver bail and "bracelet"

SIZE: This piece hangs 1 5/8" from the chain and is 3/8" wide at its widest point.

CONDITION: Beautiful condition. I have only lightly polished this so it still retains some of its patina.
