129,95€
Fine old Tuareg Khomissar, consisting of shells arranged on multiple layers of leather and mounted on a thick strand of black glass seed beads.
The Khomissar measures 8.5 cm high × 6.5 cm wide (3.35 × 2.56 in) and weighs 64 g (2.26 oz).
The Tuareg Khomissar represents a geometrically stylized interpretation of the Hand of Fatima (Hamsa), traditionally worn as a protective amulet and a symbol of blessing, protection, and good fortune throughout North Africa and the Sahara.
The combination of shells, leather, and beadwork reflects the rich symbolic tradition of Tuareg amulets, where decorative and protective functions are closely intertwined.
