From Peru's Giuliana Valz-Gen, these beautiful earrings take the form of an amulet known as the hamsa, which means "five" in Arabic. It is considered a defense against the evil eye. Popular in Jewish culture, its five fingers can represent the five books of the Torah and the fifth letter of the Hebrew alphabet, which represents one of the holy names of God. It is also a reminder to praise God with all five senses. Handcrafted of sterling silver bathed in 21k gold, the earrings showcase Andean filigree art.
