The fig sign ("mano figa") is one of the better known protective gestures for warding off the evil eye.
These 22-karat gilded enamel charms (available in coral, black, and white) are paired with lavender-pink pearls and come with a backer card wrapped in a gold organza bag.
Charms of the sign originated in Etruscan Italy where they were traditionally carved in coral to evoke Turan, the goddess of love, fertility, and vitality. Figa hands also had a heyday in the Victorian era as young women made their grand tours of Europe and collected charms along the way, and are still popular in Brazil and Portugal as amulets.
