Two silver amulets - Morocco


Two silver amulets (pendants) - hamsa and fish. Morocco, c. 1900.


A fish amulet is usually given as a virtue for protecting the mother and the newborn, or for barren woman. The hamsa is an amulet against the evil eye (see a similar amulet in Bnei Nachmias' book 'Hamsa' page 110).

Same size: 10x5 cm. Very good condition.
