Czech Glass Hamsa Hand Beads: Black with Gold Wash (15x10mm, Pack of 4)

These are four Czech glass Hamsa Hand beads, each measuring 15x10mm, in a deep opaque black with a warm gold wash that picks out the detail of the hand shape beautifully. The Hamsa is a wonderfully versatile symbol, and in this colour combination it sits somewhere between bold and understated, which makes it easy to work with.

You could use one as a focal bead on a bracelet, let a pair dangle from earring findings, or scatter them through a longer necklace alongside simple black or gold spacers. They suit a boho look, but they work just as well in something more minimal where you want a single piece with a bit of meaning.

Each bead is handmade by artisan glassworkers in the Czech Republic, so there may be tiny differences between individual pieces. That is part of what makes them feel genuine rather than mass-produced.
