Sterling Silver Blessing Amulet:
This sterling silver necklace pendant is available with three different semi-precious stones, either an Amethyst (left - light purple), Peridot (center - light green), or Garnet (right - deep red). In Buddhism, the upside down hand is a gesture of Bestowing a Blessing, charity and compassion. In Babylonian culture, the right hand was associated with Venus, the Goddess of Love.
While Hindu gods and goddesses are often seen with various weapons that have symbolic meanings, Buddhism, with its strong belief in non-violence, derives a lot of its symbolism from hand gestures. These gestures are refered to as mudras, and each particular Buddhist deity or statue of the Buddha will have a particular mudra. The open palm turned up is the gesture for Protection, or Overcoming Fear. The hand with the fingers making a circle are the symbol of reason or argument. And as mentioned below, the hand turned down is the symbol for bestowing a blessing.
You can also purchase an optional Thai Silver Necklace Chain with this pendant if you would like. Just choose either the Ball Chain or the Link Chain in the drop down menu above (right above the Add To Basket button, where it says "Pick An Optional Chain"). If you don't want a chain, then just leave it as saying Select One.
The Ball Chain Necklace (left) is 17 Inches Long and the Link Chain Necklace (Right) Is 18 Inches Long. Each ball or link is approximately 2 milliliters in diameter.
We think you are going to like these chains as they are made out of genuine Thai silver and really make our pendants / amulets stand out. They add a touch of class to our pieces.
