Intro

Bring a piece of Jerusalem into your home with this cut metal hamsa, its open ironwork filled with domes, arches, palms and a rising sun in bright enamel color. The Hebrew word Shalom sits at the center of the skyline, and the hamsa itself is a traditional symbol of protection and blessing. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has furnished Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Cut from metal and finished by hand in vivid enamel color, the hamsa measures 9 by 7 inches and is ready to hang on any wall. The open laser cut design lets light pass through the arches and rooftops of the Jerusalem scene. A hanging loop at the top makes it simple to display in an entryway, living room or office.

Gift Ideas

Its blessing of protection makes the hamsa a fitting housewarming or wedding gift, and it suits a bar or bat mitzvah, engagement or anniversary just as well. The Jerusalem imagery also carries meaning as a gift for anyone building a Jewish home. Its color and detail make it a welcome gift beyond those occasions too.

Care Instructions

Wipe the hamsa clean with a soft, dry cloth to keep the enamel bright. Avoid abrasive cleaners and keep it away from moisture to preserve the painted finish.
