The Hamsa is an ancient symbol that depicts an open right hand and represents the “Hand of God”. In all faiths, the Hamsa is recognized as a protective symbol. Inspired by this powerful idea, Thai Artisan Goong has created this intricate necklace. Masterfully crafted from sterling silver, this piece features decorative swirls, with an inlaid stone accent. The pendant rests on a sterling silver cable that measures 18 inches and is finished with a spring ring closure. A truly stunning piece of jewelry which has come to represent an instrument of blessing and protection.

Goong worked very hard learning traditional embroidery, weaving and jewelry design. Her favorite was jewelry design because she loved how she could use native materials such as semi-precious stones and silver to create beautiful pieces. Goong worked hard honing this craft and she opened a small workshop where she could design and create silver jewelry. Goong’s dream of owning her own business so she could provide for her family was finally coming true.
