The Mano Figa is an ancient symbol, used as a superstitious gesture to ward off negative influences. It depicts a fist-clenched hand with the thumb crossing between the index and middle fingers, vaguely reminiscent of the female anatomy, hence its symbolic connection to fertility and eroticism. Although known as a Brazilian symbol, its roots go back to Roman times and Etruscan culture. According to legend, in ancient traditions this amulet was placed under the mattress of women who wished to conceive, as a good luck charm for fertility. Today, the Pussy Hand represents both femininity and protection. This mono earring, made of yellow gold, is available in nine resin colors, with nine variations of hard stone cabochons, making it an elegant blend of tradition and contemporary style.
