This is a truly bold and eye-catching take on a classic theme! The clean uncluttered hamsa shape includes a representation of the Hoshen Mishpat, the High Priest's breastplate as mentioned in the Bible, containing 12 gemstones: one for each tribe of Israel. The brilliant faceted stones include cubic zirconia of various colors, as well as onyx and others. The overall piece is deeper and thicker than typical, creating a much more substantial and solid feel and appearance.
Comes with a sterling silver chain in your choice of length.
The Hoshen Mishpat was the breastplate worn by the Jewish High Priest in the days of Jerusalem’s Holy Temple. There were 12 precious stones on the Hoshen, as mentioned in Book of Exodus (28:15-30), representing the twelve tribes of Israel: Ruby, Garnet, Citrine, Blue Topaz, Topaz, Sapphire, Peridot, Onyx, Emerald, Diamond, Amethyst, Aquamarine. Today, the elegant design of the Hoshen makes a beautiful decorative motif throughout Jewish art and jewelry.
