The "Spiral Hands" handmade earrings feature Mykonos healer's hand spiral charms, artisan lampwork beads and Czech glass - unique jewelry for her.
The meaningful healer’s hand with a spiral in the palm used in the SPIRAL HANDS handmade earrings is believed to be a powerful symbol of protection and healing. The small, two-sided spiral healer’s hand charms used in the one of a kind earrings are copper over pewter and were made on the island of Mykonos in Greece by artisans. The rustic hands were given an aqua turquoise patina to add a look of ageless beauty to them. The charms hang as mirror images and, since they are two-sided, they look fabulous from any angle when the petite earrings are worn. To perfectly complement the turquoise patina of the spiral healer’s hands, artisan clear lampwork glass beads with aqua speckles and spots were above each hand. Stacked above each lampwork bead is a copper disc spacer and two types of Czech glass beads: a glass disc in a lovely translucent pink rose color with a metallic silver Picasso finish and a petite ridged melon bead in a turquoise blue green color with an earthy metallic brick red and silver Picasso finish. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the SPIRAL HANDS earrings were created for the woman who loves symbolic jewelry and loves to wear smaller earrings.
The meaningful charms made in Mykonos feature a hand with a spiral on the palm, referred to as a healer's hand or shaman's hand.
