🖐️ Ancient Symbol. Modern Brilliance.

The Hamsa is one of the world's most powerful and universally beloved symbols. Recognized across Jewish, Islamic, and universal spiritual traditions as the Hand of Fatima, Hand of Miriam, and Hand of God, it has been worn for millennia as a talisman of protection, blessings, power, and good fortune. It wards off the evil eye. It draws in happiness and health. It is a hand extended — to shield, to bless, to guard.

The Amira pendant honors that history with a design that is anything but understated. The entire 1¼-inch pendant face is blanketed wall-to-wall in micro-pavé simulated diamonds — approximately 150–200+ individually set round brilliant cubic zirconia stones — in bright warm 18K gold vermeil. Zero open metalwork. Zero bare gold on the face. Just pure, unapologetic brilliance from every angle.

💎 DESIGN DETAILS

The Amira is architecturally precise. The pendant is divided into three distinct structural sections:

① The Upper Bell Section — A wide, rounded dome arch (~55% of the pendant height) representing the four fingers and thumbs of the Hamsa, with subtle outward flares on each side. Fully iced in micro-pavé CZ, right to the perimeter edge.

② The Raised Scalloped Arch Divider — The pendant's most distinctive design feature. A three-dimensional raised gold ridge runs horizontally across the face, featuring 5 precise scallop lobes (one central, two medium on each side), itself set with a single row of pavé CZ stones along its curved top edge. This architectural ridge projects forward from the pendant surface, creating real depth and shadow — it is the detail that separates this piece from anything mass-produced.

③ The Lower Palm Section — Narrower than the upper dome, with subtle concave waist indentations along the sides and a pointed chevron tip at the base — a design signature that gives the Hamsa its unmistakable silhouette.

⚙️ THE SLIDING BAIL — FORM MEETS FUNCTION

Most pendant bails hold a piece at an angle — creating an awkward tilt against the chest. The Amira features a precision sliding bail: an oval loop bail with full CZ-pavé coverage on its outer perimeter, connected to the pendant via a sliding rectangular neck that moves laterally along any chain. The result: the pendant always hangs perfectly flat against the chest, face-forward, exactly as designed — no matter how you move.
