    Yes, I own a fair number of Khamsas. I can't seem to get enough of them. This one is special. I was not sure if it was the same one as the one on Sarah's page. You are very lucky to have it. The etched design is so delicate and the patina is perfect.

  • thanks, I do really like it......and yes, it is the same one!  :-)
