I formed and shaped this hamsa bowl using the hand-built method with dark brown clay, then textured with designs in my studio, and fired to bisque. After taking it out of the kiln I glazed it with lead free, food safe glaze and fired it for the second time at a higher temperature in my kiln at my studio.
The bowl measures about 1.25 inch tall and about 6.25" long and 4.25" wide.
My initials and the item number are carved on the back of the bowl.
You can use it for your rings and small jewelry -- it's food safe, so you can use it for olives, nuts, berries, cookies, candles, soap - anything you think of!
This sale is for the ceramic hamsa ring dish shown above: Ceramic brown Hamsa dish, Ceramic Hamsa bowl, Ceramic spoon rest, Jewelry bowl, Ceramic hamsa, Ring dish, Soap dish, Good Luck symbol (Item #2028).

The Hamsa hand is an ancient Middle Eastern amulet that protects against the “evil eye.” It is a protective sign and brings its owner happiness, luck, health, and good fortune.
Five (hamesh in Hebrew) represents the five books of the Torah for Jews. In the Jewish religion, the Jewish hamsa hand also symbolizes the Hand of Miriam, the sister of Moses and Aaron. Although the hamsa hand has been symbolic in Islam and Judaism for centuries, archaeological digs provide evidence that the hamsa predates these religions and originated with the Phoenicians.
