Miriam the Prophetess

From the She•khina Collection, this hand-made-and-painted hamsa depicts Miriam, one of the earliest prophetesses.

Miriam is best known for helping to deliver Moses at the Nile River and leading the Hebrew women in singing, dancing, and playing drums after crossing the Red Sea.

As the leader of the women of her time, Miriam inspired and empowered them to use their uniquely feminine strength and understanding to have a pivotal role in the future redemption.

This is a one-of-a-kind, signed piece of art, made with the clay of the Land of Israel.

Pigmented engobes with transparent glaze, and  22 karat gold accents.
