Historically, #bells were made to #commemorate or #celebrate and are strongly associated with peace and #freedom. Made by #artisans in #India using an age-old technique of metal-work (metal is beat into shape by hand, then buried under the hot sand kiln) This gives each bell a unique patina and beautiful round tone. Perfect in a back yard or as #decoration in the #home.

Dimensions: 28 cm height plus 10 cm strap

The #Hamsa is an ancient palm shaped #amulet that represents #protection, #power, #strength and #blessings. Very popular throughout #Africa and the #MiddleEast, it is thought to guard against the #EvilEye. The symbol can often be found in jewellery or door and wall hangings. On this hand hammered shaped metal #chime, there is a small rustic #bell at the center of the hand and also hanging from the tip of the center finger. The bells have been adorned with colourful glass beads.
