Figa Hand Charm

The figa hand (or mano figa) is a traditional amulet that dates back to ancient times, particularly in Mediterranean and Latin American cultures. It typically depicts a closed fist with the thumb placed between the index and middle fingers. The gesture itself has multiple layers of meaning depending on the culture:

• Protective Symbol: Most commonly, the figa is worn as a talisman to ward off the evil eye or negative energy and for good luck.

• Symbol of Fertility: In some interpretations, the gesture is associated with fertility and feminine power.

• Gesture of Defiance: Historically, it has also been seen as a rude or defiant gesture, used to repel harm or mock evil.
