Beautiful sweet collection Huan, are these for men and women?
In Rajasthan , both men and women wear these silver amulets . Mainly depicting the monkey god Hanuman (for protection) and Laxmi ( goddess of wealth). Others are of minor village deities. The amulets usually contain sacred texts or dust from holy sites.
Thank you for the explanation Ishvara Dhyan.
And were baby's also wearing them???
Yes Hindu babies and small children do wear them
it is usually put on a black cotton cord around the neck or arm
