Pair of Hamsa Wall Plaques – Mexican Tin Mirror & Engraved Metal
This eye-catching pair of vintage Hamsa wall plaques showcases unique cultural artistry. One is a Mexican tin hand mirror with a central mirrored panel, framed in brass-colored trim and stamped “Mexico” on the back. It includes a looped hanger and displays the textured, handmade character of mid-20th-century Mexican folk art. The second piece is a silver-toned cast metal Hamsa—likely aluminum—elaborately engraved with Arabic script (reading “Allah”), fish motifs, and the protective eye symbol. Possibly originating from North Africa or the Middle East, this amulet reflects deep spiritual symbolism. Together, they offer an evocative blend of design and tradition.
