Default Sorta AD: question for the experts

Does anyone know what these are? Since I have them up for sale, figured I had
better list this as an "Ad" so as not to offend the sticklers for internet
protocol. And, while I have your attention, I am selling and am going to
continue to sell strands of new Czech beads for .99 (that really IS an Ad)

The "for help" auction:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...sspagename= S
TRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1

You can click on "other auctions by seller" if you want to see the .99 strands.

Thanks

LOL. They do look like feet. I can't imagine what they'd be called.

I have red ones like that, I always though they were closed hands.

Nope, NOT feet. A clenched fist or just a hand - depending on whether you
want to go for the "Power to the people" look or not...

It's a Italian protection amulet called the Mano Fico or Fig Hand.

I always heard that it was a Moselm charm called a "Hand of Fatima",
although the hand is usually open with symmetrical thumbs.

Another name for it is the Hamsa...I'm not sure if that's Hebrew or what, but
the Jews also claim it ...
