Figa comes from the Italian mano Fico and is considered a powerful symbol of protection against the evil eye. The hand gesture, formed by the thumb between the fingers and a firm fist, is originally associated with fertility and female eroticism in reference to the fig, sacred fruit of the god Bacchus. Its obscene essence is believed to act as a distraction for evil.
This handicraft from Minas Gerais, made with three shades of rustic wood and metal lifting support, offers the environment the perfect harmony between beauty and purpose. As a decorative object, the handmade wooden figurine made in Minas Gerais paves the way for faith in interior decoration, making explicit the divine protection in the visual appeal through the symbolic elements that compose it, that is, the crucifixes.
A powerful protection amulet that becomes an original decoration for the home!
