There are many cultures around the world that have a great past behind them. Even if that past is filled with lots of unpleasant events, the believers have struggled and survived, just to become stronger.

There are many designs of Jewish jewelry that include the Star of David because it is very powerful and holds a deep significance, one that can be compared to the cross from Christians. Another symbol found commonly in Jewish jewelry designs is the Hamsa. Shaped like a hand with three raised fingers and two symmetrical thumbs, this is believed to be a powerful protection tool against the evil eye. It is also called the Hand of God and is used as a design for amulets, charms or pendants.The Merkaba is another symbol that can be found often in Jewish jewelry representations. This is based on the life force energy within ourselves and can provide great protection and health. It helps us with or spiritual growth and allows us to feel unconditional love.There are lots of other Jewish jewelry designs that have great powers.
