Our metal amulets are made by hand by Afghan refugees in Pakistan with traditional methods. Due to the handmade nature of this product, size and shape may vary slightly from piece to piece.
Metal amulets are widely used by tribal peoples for embellishing adult and children's clothing, bags, animal trappings and all manner of textile items for personal and household use. They are stamped into sheet metal with a design tool and then cut out by machine or by hand. Finally there are holes punched into the metal on each side to allow the piece to be attached with thread. The beauty of metal amulets is that they are small and lightweight and can be sewn to anything you like!
