Fisting Necklace

[tyofistee]

I'm looking for a stainless steel or silver fisting necklace. What I have in mind is a chain with hanging from it a fist say to include up to about wrist. Does anyone have any idea where I can buy one?

According to Lebanes culture and I think sometimes in Greek Culture ther believe if a baby is boirn with a Clenched fist with the thunb poking through between the first and second sfingers it's a sing of luck and good fortune, so in some jewellery shops you'll see examples of these fists tat adults wear on a chain, either in silver or gold.

My friend came back from Brazil last year and gave me a little wooden fist 'good luck' charm... little does she know! Just google "fist good luck necklace" and you will find a few options.

you still have not told me what is a fisting necklace. I know what is a necklace, but a fisting necklace i dont.

What I mean by a fisting necklace is a chain which goes around your neck. Then hanging from the chain is a small fist showing the clinched fist and up the arm until about the wrist.

well, that´s strange! Hope i won´t figure it out until i see it. In muslim coutries they used to have a hand, open, as amulet, ´cause it symbolizes the 5 pillars of Islam, but i don´t think this is the same, is it?

In muslim culture they also have a hand as amulet, but not sure if closed or open. It represents the 5 pillars of Islam & so is a sign of good fortune & divine blessing.

Say, crackstuffer, I think that will do. Thanks.

The link from Crack Stuffer, looks very much like a Lebonese lucky charm. A lebonese matre of mine tells me that if a baby is born with it;s fist clkenched and the thumb between the first and second fingers like that pendant it is thought to mean good luck.
