Beautiful Tuareg Hand of Fatima – KHOMISSAR – Algeria
149,95€
Tuareg metalwork (low‑silver alloy) mounted on a multi‑layered leather backing, featuring a beautiful cord made from multiple strands of leather thongs.
The Khomissar measures 11.7 cm (4.6 in) in height and 8.7 cm (3.4 in) in width, with a weight of 54.5 grams (1.92 oz).
The Tuareg Khomissar is a geometrically stylized interpretation of the Hand of Fatima (Hamsa), traditionally used as a protective amulet and a symbol of good fortune.
This particular Khomissar was crafted specifically as a talisman for pregnancy protection. The triangle symbolizes the goddess Tanit—a Berber/Phoenician deity associated with fertility and the forces of nature—while the nine small pyramidal elements at the base of the triangle represent the nine lunar months of human gestation.
