Hamsa – Pendant with Depiction of Female Demon Lilith – For Protection of Mother and Newborn – Morocco
Hamsa, pendant with image representing the female demon Lilith, meant to protect both newborn and mother. [probably Casablanca], Morocco, [early 20th century].
Silver (marked, star and crescent), cast and engraved; chased; silver rivets.
In the middle of the Hamsa is a large cast figure representing the female demon Lilith, shown raising her arms upward, superimposed over a diamond-shaped polygon. The surface of the hamsa is decorated with geometric and stripe patterns. Two holes on either side of the Lilith figure (apparently to enable attachment of additional decorations, possibly in the form of daggers).
We have no record of any other hamsa pendant with a cast figure in this form.
10.5X7 cm. Good condition. Missing decorative elements.
