Bendichas Manos Hand Necklace

This pendant features a big brass hand of my own design cut out of thick brass.I stamped the words Bendichas Manos around a double heart on the front. It's a Ladino phrase, meaning Blessed Hands, usually referring to someone who is a skilled baker or craftsperson. Basically, good with your hands. Ladino is an old language that the Sephardic Jews spoke, and some still do! My grandmother's family was Ladino, and I grew up hearing this phrase, and have always loved it, especially as a jeweler.
