| Details: | The Hamsa is often called the "Hand of G-D" or the "Hand of Miriam" and are popular as Jewish charms, wall plaques, mobiles, key chains, and necklaces. Hamsas are often decorated with prayers of a protective fashion such as the Sh'ma, the Blessing for the Home or the Blessing for Travel. From the private collection of Alice Prager, discover the many artistic designs of the hamsa.
