A small lotus flower crowns the hand, and layered teardrop petals fill its palm. Scroll-shaped cutouts let your skin or top show through the silver. The pendant measures 1.06 x 0.77 in (2.7 x 2.0 cm) and weighs about 2.8 g.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDoes a lotus hamsa hand necklace with open cutouts still look detailed when worn?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The cutouts give the hand its pattern, so the design shows through light and shadow rather than solid metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLook\u003c\/strong\u003e: A polished silver-colored hand with curved fingers, teardrop petals and a lotus bloom at the very top.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWear\u003c\/strong\u003e: The chain measures 17 in (43 cm) and adjusts, so the hand rests on the upper chest.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuild\u003c\/strong\u003e: The pendant is 925 sterling silver with platinum plating, stamped 925 and Sterling on the metal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDetail\u003c\/strong\u003e: An elongated bail and a connecting ring join the hand to a fine oval-link chain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat do the lotus and the hand mean together on this pendant?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePicture a yoga class where you leave the pendant on over a fitted tank. The lotus at the top reads clearly against fabric, and the open palm lets the color of the tank show through. At 1.06 in (2.7 cm) tall, the hand stays small enough to sit close to the neck as you move.

The 17 in (43 cm) chain places the hand just below the collarbone, as our \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/necklace-sizing-guide\"\u003enecklace length guide\u003c\/a\u003e shows for that size. The hand carries protection, the lotus a fresh start.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFor lovers of all-metal pattern\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis hamsa suits someone who wants a small, all-silver symbol with fine pattern and no color. The red flower hamsa from the same collection adds eight red petals and an eye at its center. If you prefer a single metal tone with openwork, this lotus hand is the better fit; if you want color, the red flower hamsa suits you more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul class=\"faq-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does the hand have no eye at its center?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe palm is filled with layered teardrop petals instead, so the flower theme runs from the lotus down through the hand. This gives the hamsa a botanical look rather than the watchful look of an eye design. The petals overlap like an opening bloom, which links the palm visually to the lotus at the top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the openwork change with the color of your top?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cutouts show whatever sits behind them, so a dark top outlines the silver sharply while a pale one softens it. On bare skin the pattern looks lighter and more delicate. The scroll shapes become clearer on solid colors than on busy prints, where the hand can blend into the fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhich way do the fingers point when the pendant hangs?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fingers point down toward the chest, with the lotus at the top near the bail. Worn this way, the hamsa is traditionally read as a hand offering blessing. The lotus then sits closest to the chain, framing the top of the pendant and leading the eye downward through the petals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Nahyana","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46431894241324,"sku":"1005004971990740-Default Title","price":64.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/1202\/4620\/files\/lotus-hamsa-hand-necklace-white-8060-1.webp?v=1792817982","url":"https:\/\/nahyana.com\/products\/lotus-hamsa-hand-necklace-in-platinum-plated-925-sterling-silver","provider":"Nahyana","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
