Vintage 18k Gold Figa Hand Pendant, Pink Stones, Large Protective Amulet, 1960s Good Luck Talisman

A striking vintage 18k gold Figa hand pendant, beautifully crafted in the 1960s and mounted in an ornate gold casing set with vivid pink stones (not tested). The hand itself is made from an early bone-toned material, likely celluloid or galalith, both popular in mid-century jewellery for their smooth finish and elegant appearance.

This large, expressive Figa, also known as mano fico was traditionally worn as a protective amulet, symbolising strength, good fortune, and the warding off of negativity. Its generous size and rich gold detailing give it real presence, making it ideal as a statement pendant or a powerful charm on a long chain.
